Not all disabilities are visible.

Invisible disabilities are conditions that aren’t immediately apparent but can significantly affect daily life. They can include mental health conditions, neurodivergence, chronic illnesses, autoimmune disorders, chronic pain, neurological conditions, sensory impairments, and learning disabilities.

You shouldn’t have to see someone’s struggle to believe it’s real.

Respect their needs. Be kind. 💜

Post nephrectomy recovery going nicely. Walked half the floor two lap before getting dizzy. Diet advanced to solid food instead of liquid diet. Lunch was tuna salad sandwiches and cracker (for crunch) salad and pineapple slices. Will advance off renal diet which hospital has old renal diet anyways. Being pescatarian it does not offer me much options. Will walk floors more later. Already had four flatulence occurrences also so all progressing nicely so far

Especially in earlier stages of CKD (1-4). As usually keep an eye on your labs with your renal dietician

You just need to know your labs and watch potassium levels. There are good fiber with plant based in your renal diets and also plenty of plant based proteins for your overall diets also

Lunch included broth. Dinner had broth but they could not find it once I went on dialysis as it was barely delivered right before transport for dialysis.

The joys of liquid diet post nephrectonomy 🤣🤣🤣
