I spent my weekend preparing for a Peritoneal Efficiency Test (PET). One of the items I needed to complete prior to the test was a 24-hour urine collection. Not too glamorous, eh? Well if that disturbs you, imagine my enthusiasm each time I open the refrigerator and spot the oh-so-inconspicuous orange jug…lemonade, it is not… Oh, well, I digress….
Anyways. When my 24-hours came to an end I was surprised at the near non-existence of urine. This made me sad, for two reasons. Laugh all you want, but filling that jug has always been a source of pride for me and decreased urine output is a classic sign of end-stage renal disease. It was just another reminder of my disease’s progression. It was at that moment that I realized... that makes me the word’s best travel buddy… BRING ON THE ROADTRIPS and detour the rest stops!!!!
I'm game! Where we goin?! I can hold it for a long time! Lol Prayers for you, my friend :)
