“When I was on hemodialysis, I had no energy and every other day I was hooked up to a machine for four hours, so I couldn’t go anywhere. I was in and out of the hospital every four to six weeks because of infections.
“Since I started peritoneal dialysis with Gateway in February 2004, I have been to the hospital only once. I fish, I garden, my diet isn’t as limited, and I
can travel. I just got back from a week in Oregon. I put my dialysis machine and my dialysis fluid in the back of my pickup and took off!
“My health has improved so much that I am a totally different me.
Gateway has opened up my life so much.”
