Title: Dialysis on The Simpsons
Post by: sico on September 26, 2009, 08:39:49 PM

I was watching a Simpsons episode a week or two back and in one scene Barts Grandfather was in hospital with a Catheter sticking out of his belly doing an exchange! I thought that was cool as. He had a bag hanging up and one down lower too.
Has anybody else seen this???

I didn't catch it, but I've seen episodes of both South Park and ATHF that were talking about dialysis.  I think it's great!!!

Thanks Karol, watching that now. What i seen might have been a small flashback in a different episode to when he was on dialysis.

Cannot watch southpark online from Australia for some reason. I'm keen to see this 'fun with dialysis' episode though, maybe available to watch online here at a later date.
