[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 506598, member: 84"] All I can say is..................I've had this discussion with my mom concerning my sis for years. She also has kidney disease, one of the ones I have, but refuses to follow her diet or anything else related to preventative treatment. As a result........she's in and out of the hospital like a yoyo, has been in acute renal failure so many times I lost count years ago, has had a heart attack............ok you get the idea. She also is an addict. (and a nurse who's had her license pulled) Mom tries to help her with medications ect because she has no insurance because she lost her last job. (loses them for snitching patient medications, which is why she had her license pulled) While that is nice and all, Mom has shelled out hefty amts of cash over the years. Only last year did she finally decide enough was enough, if sis couldn't make the effort to care for her health then she was done. It didn't help sis's case that I have 2 other diseases in addition to the one she has.......and I've not been admitted to hospital except for the mild heart attack, in many a year because I do my best to stick to the diet ect that I'm supposed to. Gout is not hard to prevent as far as episodes go. There is no sense in you throwing money at a problem he is refusing to do anything about. Not mean, it simply makes sense. [/QUOTE]
