Poem
Dialysis Dialysis What is that Let's do some research Get a few facts It's a procedure to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly They have to take your blood out Clean it put it back in You experience the chills And sometimes it leaves you in shock They need heating blankets and cozy socks To stay warm They experience so much with their bodies They have to be dialysised three times a week It's exhausting Overbearing It's scary I thought this was worth sharing Your blood pressure can be lowered You experience muscle cramps is physically and emotionally draining, causes complications such as nerve problems, anaemia, bone disease and infection. In addition, an arduous regime of three days a week on dialysis can lead to symptoms including nausea, vomiting, cramps and depression. Whew Let's have a session My mom had to go go to dialysis for 4 years Three times a week She went through a lot On a machine Trying to give it your all Sometimes she would have to get off of it because her body would cramp She would cry Unless you were a dialysis patient. You wouldn't understand why I salute ?? each one Each one i wish I could give a hug You guys are tough ?? And deserve a lot of love A chronic kidney disease That comes with no ease Getting stuck with needles Getting blood drawn In and out Out and in It can affect the Skin Leaving all kinds of bruises And dark spots You my diaylsis friends will never be forgot Let's put our hearts together and hold hands Make this disease better if we can How can you get checked If you feel something is wrong Do us a favor get checked on Yes it can affect your urine Maybe even stop you from having children. I don't know The more information I get for you The more I'll let you know Dialysis doesn't necessarily mean it's the end Just pick up where you left off You can still win I wrote this tribute in honor of my mother Who is no longer physically here Rest in Paradise Beautifully my dear And to all if you feel like it gets Overbearing Let's honor dialysis and all that we have lost and those who are still fighting In honor of my mom Lets get Kozy for Karen Written by Concetta Hardnett 01/12/2025
