I'll say...

It says he refused his daily dialysis...and lived almost a year without it! I wonder if he had accepted once-a-week dialysis...wonder how long he would've lived?

Amazing.

If I live to be 81, I'm not sure I'd accept dialysis either.

Papa lived for over 10 years with a permanent catheter. I don't know how he did it.

Just take me out back and shoot me.

I remember reading when he'd decided not to have the dialysis, figuring he'd lived a good long life, and why go through the hassle. I'm thinking I might think the same thing if I make it to that age and are faced with that. I'm glad he was able to hang on as long as he did.
