Need help. Can anyone recommend good books on chronic kidney disease? How to live

[T Wolf]

with it and how to live with someone who has it?

I would actually love to get hold of a novel about someone with chronic kidney failure and how they and their family cope with the progression from health to infections & illness to dialysis to transplant. I have found the "technical" or "medical" information less helpful than I would like.

We are now facing dialysis and eventual transplant in a much nearer future than previously anticipated.

Thank you for any help and guidance you can provide.

1. I don't know of a specific book,

but the National Kidney Foundation is a great source of info. Also, if you haven't done so yet, just Google "Chronic Kidney Disease". There are lots of web sites that might interest you. Good luck!
