Hiya, my husband Bruce, has myeloma and kidney failure (he has dialysis 3 times a week).

He has to be careful about his fluid intake because of 'hidden fluids'. Dialysis removes excess fluid as well as cleaning the kidneys. He has to watch what he's eating as well as how much he drinks. Jelly, icecream, salad, custard, soups, stews all contain a lot of liquid. Maybe getting your Dad to eat some of the things my husband has to avoid will help keep him hydrated.

Cheers
Mal & Bruce.

No, you didn't miss it, my fault – think I hit a wrong button 🙂 Doh! I was trying to let Kathleen know we're in Cornwall. We go out to play about twice a week. Music has always been a big part of Bruce's life.

Cheers

Hi, we're near Padstow. My husband was diagnosed with myeloma last November. He has dialysis 3 times a week.

We play at pubs with friends for fun, usually just an acoustic set-up. Over the next few weeks we're fund raising for Myeloma UK. This YouTube link shows the dates

Hi Badger, Hubby has 3 & 3/4 hrs dialysis three times a week, they say there is little chance of his kidneys improving. He still passes some 'water' which is a tiny plus. You've given us something to think about 'kidney wise'.

Cheers
Clucky & Hubby
