00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:11.000
I'm a composer, producer and professional pianist.

00:00:20.405 --> 00:00:21.200
my career.

00:00:21.200 --> 00:00:23.040
That just never entered my mind.

Being on dialysis hasn't really slowed me down at all

NOTE Confidence: 0.9605450630187988

00:00:26.390 --> 00:00:29.481
with regard to that, and it's been pretty seamless in

NOTE Confidence: 0.9605450630187988

00:00:29.540 --> 00:00:32.631
terms of me continuing on with my everyday life, both

00:00:32.690 --> 00:00:34.440
personally and professionally.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9483855962753296

00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:39.175
If you're able physically, you should definitely continue with your

00:00:39.239 --> 00:00:43.316
work schedule and everything else because that part treats your

00:00:43.381 --> 00:00:47.328
your mental stability and it gives yourself something to look

00:00:47.392 --> 00:00:50.239
forward to and the sense that you can do it.
