Nick Chin was a very healthy 38 year old, gym daily, snowboarder, mountain biker, footballer, hiker, not a heavy drinker and ate a healthy diet but overnight his body started to swell and bloat. Hours later he was diagnosed with a blood poisoning and kidney failure !
This then started Nick one journey for over 2 years of self-administered dialysis for 4 hours a day 3 times a week (whilst still working to support his family), and spent his 40th birthday in Hospital, but it got worse and his kidney failed, a transplant was needed.
Nick tells his story now aged 50 not just to share his experiences but to help others learn from this traumatic experience.
