You’ve read posts from Katrina here on a regular basis. To change things up, our friends over at SheLoves Magazine are sharing her post today. Check out the excerpt below, and click through to read the full story on growing up in the dialysis room:
The dialysis unit of the children’s hospital is in the basement. A dark, quiet room with ground floor windows.

Guest folding chairs sit beside each recliner, or rather “parent” chairs. No child brings a friend here.
The two cribs in the corner have no TVs above them. No parents complain.

Most patients here are regulars too.
