💚 NEW EPISODE out now
Cam thought he had an ear infection.
Within weeks, his GFR had crashed to 6 — and he was rushed into emergency dialysis with no warning, no preparation, and no time to process what was happening to him.
He calls it "crash landing into dialysis."
But here's the thing — that wasn't the end of his story. It was only the beginning.
