@gailb I am sorry to hear about your husband What do they do for kidney failure of that type? Is there anything short of a transplant? I think depression is a frequent condition as we age, particularly if a person's health is failing at all. I am very unknowledgeable about kidneys. What causes kidney failure?

What is it about men, they absolutely hate to go to the doctor. My husband is terrible about that. He went for his first visit in over 10 years last year. He took forever to choose a PCP and just recently got a letter that she has left the practice, so here we go again! Thankfully he is in incredible health, no medications or problems at all, but he has begun to feel his age.
