Panhandle Bear ‘26

[jpc01101]

My older two kids have a genetic kidney disorder. My older daughter (23) got a transplant in Oct and my older son (22) is in kidney failure. He has been on Hemo dialysis for about a year and a half and hasn’t been able to go anywhere. Well, we got him on peritoneal dialysis and we are going bear hunting! He is pretty weak so won’t be able to hike far but I will run a few baits and we will do some calling and most of all we will be out together. Will post back here with progress after we get out there on the 22nd. He is pretty excited and so am I! More to come!!

Good luck! If you need a 55 gallon drum, hit me up, I’m in Spokane and would give it to ya.

Appreciate that! I might take you up on it. I have two that I leave in storage in Missoula. But I have 3 bait sites.

I cam relate to the kidney problems. PM me if your so needs advice being on PD and hunting. Its a challenge, but its doable. Beats Hemo for sure.

<<3 kidney transplants, hemo, PD, then hemo transitioned to PD.

Appreciate that. He is kinda fresh on the cycler, did manual for 3 weeks and that was very time consuming. He is struggling a little with drain pain but overall its better for him than hemo for sure.
