I would appreciate any information anyone can give me on the benefits and disadvantages of kidney dialysis, especially in the elderly.

Thank you for the link.

I have been to the sight before, but was unable to find information regarding elderly kidney patients, i.e. someone who is over 80.

I was hoping for some personal accounts from people who might be able to shed some light.

Thank Again,
Joan
