I am living in a world that has gone through a dramatic transformation in the last few years. I have been a busy teacher, a busy writer, a busy reader for three decades. I am a busy woman.
I’m a busy woman that has been living in a world where I have been a patient for over three decades. I want to be able to write about the world I have been in. I want to make the world better. Because I want to live in that world.
In a world that has gone through a dramatic transformation, a person who has been a patient for over three decades could be a bit of a hermit. Sure, some people are more comfortable with it, but being a patient seems like such a glamorous life that people tend to forget that they are actually living in a world that still needs medical care.
A patient is someone who has been diagnosed with a disease and is not a resident of a hospital or facility. A resident is someone who has been a resident for longer than three years. Most people are surprised to learn that a person can be a resident for several decades. This isn’t a bad thing though because people who are patients tend to have a lot of family support. They tend to have a very strong community that surrounds them, especially if they find themselves in a hospital.
To be a patient, you need to have a certain amount of resources with you, like a family, a car, and a home. Most patients, however, do not have all of these things. A few times during our interview, a patient from Australia complained that he couldn’t drive his car because he needed to go to the bathroom. When a patient is put on peritoneal dialysis, the dialysis machine is inserted into their stomach.
PDA (peritoneal dialysis) is a procedure in which you have a machine that you have inserted into your stomach, where it sits under the diaphragm. These machines are only used during a certain amount of time, usually six months. During this time, the machine must be cleaned and re-used, so a patient usually must come to the hospital for a physical exam and a checkup to make sure they are still doing okay.
As a result of the patient’s death, the doctor who performed the procedure determines if the patient is alive or dead. If they are alive, the doctor has a set of tests to perform to determine whether or not the patient is alive. If they are dead, the doctor considers the patient’s condition, his symptoms, and whether he’s dying.
The goal is to keep the patients body alive so the doctor can perform the necessary tests and see how they are doing. The doctor says that he can keep the body alive by removing the peritoneum from their body, and then re-using it. If the doctor wants to help the patient keep his body alive, the doctor has to clean the machine once a week and then replace it with a new clean one.
Patient is dead. After the doctor cleans, the patient dies as a result of the new clean machine. This process is referred to as “peritoneal dialysis,” because it literally means removing the peritoneum from a patient and re-using it.
