As a dialysis patient, I've read a lot about the technology and its history. Seeing the big bulky machines of the 70s that made people bedridden and prone to infections in a matter of weeks. With the advances of sealed disposable plastics it is possible to do dialysis at home. Recently they allow solo dialysis if the patient is comfortable. I happen to do PD dialysis every night when I sleep. During the day people don't notice anything different about me.
