My Dad’s on Dialysis for 12 years... Davita twice per week. I sat with him during the last couple of years. It’s a very hard thing and my heart goes out to all of you on Dialysis.

Welcome to the group.  I feel chronic diseases can be hardest on the caregivers and loved ones.  Thank you for being there for your father.
