Very disappointing and totally untealistic as it bolstered so many falsehoods about end- stage renal failure.
I am 63 and have been on hemodialysis three times a week for nearly 13 years and I live a rich, full life as many dialysis patients do. Rarely does a patient NEED a transplant, especially from a drug addict and boozer. (They got it right that the wait for an organ is very long.)
Also the blood-spatterning opening for the show was gross and so inappropriate.
