Man credits dialysis center as lifeline after home and hospital saga
Buehler, an 82 year old dialysis patient, praises his center and staff after a weekend of events from a plane show and ham radio meeting to treatment. He recalls nurses who supported him, his long marriage, and a kidney cancer diagnosis that led to lifelong hemodialysis at the Da Vita center with 41 patients served. He plans a McDonalds coffee post treatment and remains hopeful despite odds on transplant.
