I tried it at home for a year and it was too stressful for my wife so I gave it up.

But yes, better to be prepared.<br /><br />On a side note, maybe you should consider doing every pother day nightly rather than thrice a week. It is better to avoid a 2 day gap.Kamal D Shahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671037449347982821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-69519531816517701612018-03-12T11:49:16.204+05:302018-03-12T11:49:16.204+05:30This is a very interesting topic for me.

I have been on hemodialysis (nightly, 3 times a week) since the last 4-5 years now and I keep thinking about what is going to happen in 10-15 years from now (I'm nearly 54 now). So I decided to act on my worries and wrpte a will and a Do Not Resuscitate order, which includes a statement that gives my wife the legal right to decide what to do in case I am incapacitated. I had it notarized and now all this sits in some kind of legal office in Berlin. I received a card that I carry in my wallet that explains what the order says, so that information's on me at all times. I also gave a copy of the DNR to my doctors and to my dialysis clinic. One day this is going to be really helpful. <br /><br />It's good to see India thinking about this topic now.Shravan Vasishthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05926656325558456592noreply@blogger.com
