I lost a kidney and have just recently found a path to take because a Doctor took the time to listen and realized I was not a hypochondriac or a big overly sensitive, stressed, depressed woman. (yes, lots of justified sarcasm).

We learned that we were born with a defect in a critical cholesterol gene and that our precious six-year-old identical twin daughters, Addi and Cassi, inherited a double mutation - both genetic cholesterol defects.
For many months, I'd known...

I’m a 56 year old diabetic man who has been on insulin for over 40 years and the last 10 on an insulin pump. I didn't start having serious problems until I was about 40; and that’s when things began a downhill slide to my present condition.
