@ococean09 Are you looking for an online support group for your family member? Try rsnhope.org, which has twice monthly Zoom meetings. There are people from all over the country, and there are different types of meetings that happen virtually that have to do with diet, exercise, creative endeavors, book club, etc. The organization was founded in 1993 by Lori Hartwell, who is a four-time kidney recipient.

Beyond that, you can find helpful information from the National Kidney Foundation https://www.kidney.org/nutrition;
DaVita Kidney Care: https://www.davita.com/diet-nutrition; and Fresenius Kidney Care: https://www.freseniuskidneycare.com/recipes-and-nutrition

Do you have any other questions for me?
