Each patient is different some can work some cannot, you make the best of it as possible as you can.  Its just not dialysis there is other ailments that can happen.

I've watched a few of those types of videos before, and a lot of them focus on people who are so much older than me.  The people they usually talk to are grandparents.  If I was looking for this kind of information when I first got sick, at 12 years old, I wouldn't think any of it applied to me, because there really is no young person's perspective
