Weekly Round Up: March 7th - 11th

I have decided to start a new feature!  

As I was re-reading my original idea for this site, one of my biggest reasons for starting it was to connect my readers to blogs/sites dealing with particular diseases, conditions, syndromes, etc for easy reading.

With that said, I am going to do a "Weekly Round Up" that will feature the a few of the articles I have read this week pertaining to one subject for a quick reference list!

March has several awareness campaigns, one of which is National Kidney Month.  This week, the articles below will all deal with information related to the renal system, in one way or another!
