Her wishing Rush’s kidneys would fail...does she realize what this means?

I lost my husband 5 years ago because his kidneys failed. There was no kidney disease in his family and his kidneys began to fail, which meant he was immediately on dialysis. We were waiting for a kidney and after 2 years on dialysis, he passed away. What a heart break this was for me to hear? Its like saying ‘she hopes Rush or anyone gets cancer’ or anything of that nature. I believe all those folks in America who are living on dialysis feel terribly hurt. Dialysis is one hard thing to go through.

I just wanted to share this with you because the kidney remark hit too close to home and made me hurt all over.

I am so sorry for your loss. My cousin was diagnosed with the earliest stage kidney cancer 6 months ago, luckily they removed it and now he is fine, but he gets a CT Scan every 3 months to make sure he is fine, just had one done, came back clean(Thank God) for Wanda to say this, wishing death, that is what she was basically saying, that she hopes his kidneys fail and he dies..what the hell was that supposed to be...funny? I sure as hell wasn’t laughing..perhaps Wanda needs to visit a dialysis center to see what pure hell it is to be on that 4 times a week just to live

Please know that you have a friend here.
And I agree with you about the show tonight, absolutely filled with arrogant, self important, people who I would not want as my neighbors.

I’m sorry about your husband’s illness and your loss. Please don’t let this disgusting comment go unnoticed. Write to the network and to the National Kidney Foundation to say how hurtful this comment was - maybe if enough people complain there might be a demand for an apology and if nothing else, she will be outted for the disgusting bigot that she is.

God bless you, jaycee. I didn’t watch this fiasco but reading the thread this morning, and the commentary on that filthy mouthed Sykes female, I am crying and it takes a lot to make me cry.

My grandfather was on dialysis too, before died. I wasn’t close to him but I saw how draining it was on my dad, my grandmother and aunts and uncles.

What passes for “humor” today is disgraceful.
