My brother has just been diagnosed with the beginning stages of kidney failure. Unfortunately, it is due to years of him not taking care of his type 1 diabetes. The doctors have put him on some sort of medication to help him. If things were not complicated enough, he had to close his business down about 6 months ago because of the recession: no work led to no money. His business partner even skipped out on him with things were getting tough. My DB then closed up the business and moved in with my mom. He has no money and no insurance. I knew that his health was not good and was able to find out from a co-worker of a state hospital that he can go to for the uninsured. Thank God he went. If he had waited any longer things would be worse. Our family is not rich by any means, especially since the recession hit us a bit hard.
In any case, I pray that God helps out my brother.
Thanks!

"Happiness depends on ourselves." -Aristotle
"There are times when only a dog will do for a friend: when you're beaten, sick and blue, and the world's all wrong; for he won't care. If you break and cry, or grouch and swear; for he'll let you know as he licks your hands that he's downright sorry and understands." -Don Blanding (1894-1957)
