🎥 You can push it away… but it’s still coming back. You can throw the can. You can deny it. You can say “not me” or “I feel fine.” But kidney disease doesn’t go away because we ignore it. Just like the pressure in that can—it builds. Until it demands your attention. Here’s the truth: 🩸 1 in 3 adults is at risk. Most don’t even know they have it. And trying to push it off, delay it, or pretend it’s not real? It only makes it hit harder when it returns. 💥 But what if you stopped pushing it away—and started pushing back? Not with fear. But with education. With action. With support. If you or someone you love has kidney disease, you’re not powerless. You just need the right tools and team in your corner. 📍Start by asking: – What’s my GFR? – What’s my UACR? – What stage am I in? – Who’s helping me track it? We’re not waiting for things to explode. We’re taking the pressure off—one step at a time. 💛 Visit kidneyfl.org to get support, tools, and a community that gets it. You are not alone—and you don’t have to face this in silence. #KidneyDiseaseAwareness #KnowYourNumbers #KidneyHealth #CKD #NKFF #YouAreNotAlone (fb)
