@syedlaeeqahmed I am sure your father understands why you feel the need to secret yourself away to eat the foods he cannot. Perhaps sharing time together, each of you eating what is allowed, will be a bonding time for you? There are foods I cannot eat, but my husband does. It makes me feel less of a sacrifice to see him enjoy his diet!

Often we find our doctors cannot express their thoughts or ideas in a way that we as patients understand. Sometimes a gentle reminder to them that we don't have the intense training they do, that we need to hear it in terms we understand, will help.

I look forward to hearing good progress for your father!

Hi Ginger,

I just wanted to say how deeply grateful I am for your kindness and support throughout this journey with my father. Your words have brought so much comfort and clarity during some very overwhelming moments. It means the world to me that you took the time to understand and encourage us.

Thanks to continued care and prayers, my father's recent reports show stability — his creatinine and eGFR have stopped declining, and his appetite and energy are improving. We’re taking it one day at a time, with hope.

I’ve also started joining him during meals with our respective diets — and as you beautifully said, that shared time has become something special.

Thank you, Ginger, from the bottom of my heart. I’m truly blessed to have your support and will always remember it.

Warmly,
Laeeq
