Dialysis Wait and Diabetes.

Shared by Anonymous · October 22, 2026


My brother waited months and months for dialysis. He would have to go and get needles in his EYES to prevent him from going blind. On Halloween 2024, he lost his life, he succumbed to his diabetes. 
I blame Smith and her decisions. She shortened my brothers life, I am sure he would still be with us if he didn't have to wait over 7 months. He was only 64. 
Thank you
C. P.
