 | | Cora H., dialysis patient |
Each quarter we feature one of our dialysis patients in the Nephrology Note. Meet Cora H., a dialysis patient since 2010, who has a knack for shopping and decorating!
Cora was diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney Disease back in 2001. She went to a routine doctor's appointment in October of 2010 and was instructed to go to the hospital where she was admitted. At that time she was told that she would need to go on dialysis.
1. What is your favorite motto or motivational quote?
Phil: 4:13 - I can do ALL things, thru Christ, who strengthens me.
2. What are some things that help make your experience positive while dialyzing?
The medical staff's positive spirit and the other patient's jokes and stories!
3.What do you like most about the teammates who perform your dialysis treatments?
The medical staff is just so awesome, caring, compassionate and patient with all of the patients. They have such positive attitudes! I was so upset when I first started dialyzing at DaVita. The staff took me under their wings and made me a part of their family.
