This article appeared in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette November 21. My husband and I have been practicing home hemodialysis since August of this year and the change in him has been nothing short of a miracle. In-center treatments left him feeling weak, lethargic with a general feeling of malaise. Home hemo treatments have made a dramatic difference in his health and well being and I would urge anyone currently doing in-center hemodialysis to explore this option.

On my husband's visit to his nephrologist last week, his doctor was extremely impressed with this progress.

hahahahahahaha Thanks, Levi!!! My hope was that dialysis patients and / or their families could get informed and see home hemo as a viable option. It has made a tremendous difference for my husband. It's the same for the patients that we have talked to who practice home hemodialysis. While in center dialysis may keep a patient "going", home hemodialysis can give a patient their life back.
