Kill Time Buy Time

A visit to a dialysis center is quite a hassle especially for those who do that 3 times a week.

I hear of people eating the food they like while they are hooked to the machine for it is one time they can be free of the ills of their body knowing that the machine will clean everything that is stuffed inside. On this, I would think that it is better to eat hours before the actual dialysis rather than while hooked to the machine. The food would then have been digested and entered the bloodstream.

Ah, I digressed. For those who accompany the patient, it is boring time waiting. How nice if there were an internet café or shops to kill those boring hours?

For those hooked to the machine, good money is spent but well spent it is for it buys them time.

What a difference? Some wants to kill time while another buys time.

spending time at a dialysis center is pretty depressing. u see patients as young as in their late twenties and it makes your heart cringe to know that it's a life long visit for them to the center. on the other hand you see many who are spending extended time and they look a pitiful sight with bulging hands and paled faces. and there is nothing you can do, not even a consoling word.
