Thank you for responding. The more information I get, the less anxious I get. I just read an article about the option of not doing dialysis when a person is 75+ as it does not give you that much of a prolonged life. My husband has talked about that also.

@jprust I feel that the decision to do dialysis is a personal one, for sure. If your husband was to decide to not do dialysis, I would hope he has complete information from the social worker and medical team, as to what to expect physically/mentally. and emotionally.
