Stay Active & Prayed Up: Chronic Kidney Disease

 Health information inquiry on chronic kidney disease and those having survived, all ages, that oppressive time of the pandemic. Stay blessed, active and healthy!

 

"Yes, but the answer is a little more complicated than it first appears.

The COVID-19 pandemic did increase the number of people who needed dialysis because COVID can cause severe kidney damage, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Some hospitalized patients required temporary dialysis, and some went on to develop permanent kidney failure requiring long-term dialysis.

However, in the United States, the total number of people on chronic dialysis actually declined during the first year of the pandemic. That happened because:

• Many dialysis patients were especially vulnerable to severe COVID-19 and died.
• Fewer people began treatment for end-stage kidney disease during the early months of the pandemic, partly because healthcare was disrupted.
• The dialysis population experienced an unprecedented decrease of about 2% in 2020.

Researchers found that:

• Dialysis patients had COVID-19 infection rates substantially higher than the general Medicare population.
• Deaths among dialysis patients increased by nearly 20% in 2020 compared with 2019.
• COVID-related kidney injury created additional demand for dialysis services in hospitals.

So if you're asking, "Did more people need dialysis because of the pandemic?" the answer is yes. If you're asking, "Did the total number of people receiving long-term dialysis increase during the early pandemic?" the answer is not immediately—it actually decreased at first because of increased mortality and disruptions in care.

If you're interested, I can also explain whether nephrologists are now seeing an increase in chronic kidney disease and dialysis needs several years after COVID infections."

When your intuition says "Somethings (Situations) are about to go down"!!!

 

I have revised this post from the original publication. "That "sinking" or "lurching" sensation in your gut—often accompanied by a feeling of impending doom—is a real, biological, and psychological response, not just superstition. It is frequently caused by your subconscious mind processing subtle environmental cues (such as a shift in tone, body language, or a strange atmosphere) faster than your conscious brain can analyze them. 

When your gut is telling you that "shit is about to go down," here is what is happening and what you should do: Algo está a punto de suceder.

Why You Feel It (The Science)

• Subconscious Pattern Recognition: Your brain is a supercomputer that matches present experiences against past ones. It notices patterns—like a slight change in a person's behavior or a "funny" vibe in a room—and flashes a red flag long before you can logically explain why.
• The "Second Brain" Reaction: Your gut contains a massive network of neurons (the enteric nervous system). When you feel danger, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol and epinephrine, triggering a "fight-or-flight" response that causes physical symptoms like nausea, cramping, or a "drop" in your stomach.
• The Vagus Nerve: This nerve connects your brain directly to your gut, causing emotional stress to manifest as physical discomfort. 

What to Do When Your Gut Tells You Something Is Off

• Listen and Pause: When you feel that tightening in your chest or sinking in your stomach, stop and pay attention. Don't immediately dismiss it as anxiety or overthinking.
• Verify with Reality (If Time Allows): While trusting your gut is key, try to pause and check for patterns. Ask yourself: Has this feeling been right before? Is this situation similar to a past negative experience?.
• Protect Your Peace: If the "off" feeling persists, remove yourself from the situation or person. You do not need to justify protecting your peace with a logical reason immediately.
• Take Actionable Safety Steps: If you feel unsafe in a public space, trust your instinct to change your route, call someone, or enter a crowded, safe place, even if you feel paranoid.
• Differentiate from Anxiety: A true gut feeling is often quiet, subtle, and present-focused. Anxiety, by contrast, is loud, future-based, and tends to build, creating "what if" scenarios. 

When to Trust Your Gut vs. When It Might Be Misleading

• Trust the Gut: If you feel unsafe, pressured to do something against your values, or notice inauthentic behavior.
• Question the Gut (Trauma/Anxiety): If the feeling is constant, attached to panic, or arises from a place of fear conditioning (trauma), it may be a past trauma response rather than a present warning. 

Bottom Line: Your gut feeling is a powerful early warning system. If the vibe is off, believe the

Easter 2026!!!

 

George Orwell: 'Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.' 

‘There is wisdom in the above statement. Similarity it’s said that our parent’s generation would take graver actions to advance a cause; this is human. Let today’s youth stand on our generation’s shoulders & achievements but when WE say move or that we see passed the greed of money or sexuality that is the true way forward” - A.T.

Palm Sunday marks start of Christian Holy Week

 

"

It’s Palm Sunday, the beginning of the Christian Holy Week, leading up to the celebration of Easter next Sunday, April 5.

Millions of Christians worldwide carry palm leaves in processions today to recall Jesus riding a donkey into Jerusalem for Passover week nearly 2,000 years ago, when cheering crowds waved palms, hailing what they expected to be a political savior.

Jesus was later crucified by the Romans with crowds shouting approval, according to Gospel accounts.

Commemorating Palm Sunday with palm branches goes back to the early Christian church. It remains a favorite among parishioners, who are handed palm branches or palm crosses as they enter the church at many services.

In the Holy Land, where the events commemorated took place, this will be a subdued Holy Week due to ongoing war.

Jerusalem’s major holy sites are closed as the war with Iran war continues, now in its fifth week.

The holy city’s stone alleyways are mostly quiet without the traditional crowds of tourists.

The Palm Sunday procession commemorating Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem was canceled.

In his Palm Sunday sermon, Pope Leo XIV, the first U.S.-born head of the Roman Catholic Church, condemned war.“Brothers and sisters, this is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war,” Pope Leo said. “He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them.”
