We won't have any more training to do dialysis until next Friday, then it will just be for an hour or two as a refresher. The machine and all the supplies will be delivered to Mom's house next week. On Friday night she will start evening dialysis for the first time at home. I will be staying with her at night (that weekend, maybe longer) to make sure she can hook up of an evening and unhook of a morning by herself. I think she'll be able to do it fine, but we're both a little nervous.
Here is a picture of her dialysis machine and then one of Mom and her training nurse Ruth.

If you look closely at Mom's waist, you'll be able to see the port sticking out of her shorts that's she'll hook up to.
