Nierengeflüster

Nierengeflüster is a personal blog by Tanja, also known as Tanni, who shares her experience of living with kidney failure and dialysis for more than 20 years. Drawing on her own treatment journey, she aims to offer encouragement and practical information to people affected by dialysis, as well as readers seeking to understand it better. The blog covers dialysis guidance, nutrition, dialysis-friendly recipes, leisure, and everyday life.

Articles explain topics such as haemodialysis, shunt care, and applying for a disability pass, while personal posts discuss treatment challenges, transplantation, and maintaining appetite, activity, and enjoyment of life. Recipes, including adaptations intended for dialysis patients, provide ideas for food. Tanni also writes about exercise, holidays, and finding ways to stay active despite regular treatment.

Nierengeflüster combines personal stories with accessible tips and informational content, presenting life with dialysis as challenging but compatible with a fulfilling, engaged life. Its central purpose is to help readers feel informed, understood, and encouraged through shared experience
