I've never played soccer a day in my life. I'd love to watch the game, but I'm in the States right now and I don't get any channels that cover it (Doh!). The best thing that I've been able to do since all this started was starting to do my own dialysis at home. I dialyze six days a week instead of three, so I get twice as much dialysis (normal kidneys work 24/7, so more dialysis is better). I'm soon going to be starting what's called nocturnal home hemodialysis (NHHD), which I will do for eight hours a night while I sleep. Clinical results for NHHD are usually just as good or better than a kidney transplant! As far as my cycling goes, my goal is to be able to do a 20 mile ride nonstop by Spring. Doesn't sound like much, but for most of this summer, I rarely even looked at my bikes, so it's a fair goal. In all honesty, there aren't many things I like about living in the States (apologies to the Americans), but one thing I do like is having a lot more warm weather, therefore more comfortable riding days. Hmm, getting kind of long winded here, I better stop.
