Hi
I had earlier started a threat abt heartfailure regarding my uncle.
Now the greatest problem he has is kidney failure. He will need dialysis.
He has till Tuesday to decide which method to use.
The hospital based dialysis is not very convenient as he lives in a village over 2 hours away. Doctors have advised on home analysis.
I'm very worried as he is 72 and lives with my mum who is 76 and my other uncle who is 80. They live in Switzerland.
Does anyone have experience with home dialysis? He would have to do it 4 times a day.
He needs to take a decision by next Monday. Please if anyone has any advise to give which would help him take the right decision.
Thank you x
