There was a NxStageUser that was interviewed that spoke on how it has helped her.

They called and asked if Jenna wanted to be on the program, guess they were looking for people about ready to start dialysis and someone gave them her name. She would have had to ask a question from the audience. They ended up not using her, and I forgot to tivo the show.
