Yes, miracles do happen: a story of an infant on peritoneal dialysis.
The purpose of my writing this story is to share an experience I had as a nephrology nurse at the London Health Sciences Centre. I'm sure as nurses we have all been involved with patients whom you know you will never forget and who have influenced your life as a caregiver. Such is the case with Baby M. This is a story of an infant on peritoneal dialysis.
