When life throws you curveballs, sometimes all you can do is swing with all your might – and that’s exactly what Christina, our fabulous and resilient guest has done. Listen in as she shares her extraordinary journey from battling kidney disease, enduring a pregnancy with undiagnosed PIH (Pregnancy Induced Hypertension) that caused blindness and seizures, to finding strength through humor and love. Her story isn't just about survival; it’s about thriving against the odds and embracing each day with hope and joy.

Throughout our conversation, Christina and her champion and husband, Michael transport us through their life's tapestry.  Hers is a story of determination as she navigated the challenges of being a young single mother dealing with kidney failure. Her candid revelations about societal misconceptions and personal adversities shed light on the often-overlooked struggles of those living with chronic conditions.  Despite all the setbacks, she rose again - over and over.  She met and married Michael and they live life to the fullest and on their own terms.  Their narrative is a powerful reminder of the human spirit's indomitable will to find self-worth and happiness, even in the darkest of times.

Join us as we explore the intimate world of home dialysis, nocturnal treatments, and the unshakeable bond she shares with her husband and care partner, Michael. Their story is a testament to the profound impact that support, empowerment, and a good laugh can have on overcoming life’s obstacles. Prepare to be moved and inspired as we honor Christina and Michael's gratitude, strength, and the life-changing role of nurses and caregivers who inspire, educate and support people to thrive on dialysis.....and beyond!
