Grateful to renal team who cared for him & God🙏
The effect of the fires is directly impacting my family's health with air purifiers turning red indicating poor air quality😔
Black skies is frightening and so is seeing family gasping for breath & hope that we have relief🙏

Had it not been for "My Rock"💖family👇I am unsure whether I would be here.
