Overview

Kidney disease has become one of the defining realities of contemporary human life. It crosses boundaries of age, profession, culture, and faith, shaping how individuals think, feel, work, worship, and relate to one another. It is encountered in emergency rooms and dialysis units, classrooms and research laboratories, churches and counseling rooms, workplaces and homes. Yet despite its growing prevalence and profound impact, kidney failure - and the stress it imposes on the whole person - remains widely misunderstood. This book was born out of a season I never anticipated in which my own body became the classroom, and survival became the lesson. What began on a hospital bed, under the weight of acute illness and uncertainty, unfolded into the long and humbling journey of kidney failure and dialysis. In that space between fragility and endurance, I learned not only how the body fails, but how it adapts, compensates, and continues to seek life. This work is both educational and deeply personal. It is written for patients, caregivers, students, clinicians, clergy, counselors, and thoughtful readers seeking a humane and integrated understanding of kidney disease. While grounded in scientific and clinical knowledge, the text avoids unnecessary technical complexity. Medical concepts are presented with clarity, psychological insights are connected to lived experience, and spiritual reflections are o ered not as simplistic answers, but as companions in uncertainty.
