My Red Socks Challenge for Kidney Health
People on dialysis spend around 60 hours every month connected to a machine.
This October, I have committed to the Red Socks Challenge, to stand with Australians living with kidney disease.
I will be taking on 60km in October to honour the hours spent on dialysis - raising awareness and helping fund better care.
Please donate to support a better future for people with kidney disease.

The kidneys remove harmful wastes like urea, creatinine, extra acids, and leftover medicines, keeping your blood clean and your body healthy.

day 2
Sunday 20th SepI’d like to share over the next month and a bit important information concerning our kidneys.
I’ll post a new fact each day.
Firstly we’ll look at how they work.
They filter 120-125 ml per min which is 180 litres of fluid per day.
Almost all of that fluid is reabsorbed with only 1.5-2 litres becoming urine.
day one
Sunday 20th SepI have been working as a dialysis nurse since February 2025.
Very new to the specialty.
End stage Kidney Disease means that a person will die without treatment.
So a dialysis patient normally attends a renal unit 3 days a week for 52 weeks of the year.
Kidney failure can affect anyone.
I hope to spread a little bit of interest in looking after your kidneys and maybe raise some funds for research.
Thank in advance.
