Renal Support Network's founder Lori Hartwell's KidneyTalk with Celia Kanter
July 24, 2013
Can you live very long on dialysis? Oh yes you can! Lori interviews Ms. Celia Kanter who has been on dialysis for over 36 years. Celia was diagnosed with kidney disease at the age of 30, due to high blood pressure, and was given only 5 years to live. She is now 73, has had the same fistula since she started, and is living an active life. Listen to this amazing woman’s story of wisdom, longevity and positivity, despite the limitations of dialysis and chronic illness.
