    Abstract

    A kidney patient recalls his experience of almost 45 years of renal replacement therapy covering nearly 25 years of dialysis and 20 years with a transplant. At the beginning, patient or graft survival was a major goal and symbol of successful treatment. But for the patient, what really matters is the quality of his life, assuming he can survive.
