Geocache Description:


Di-Alah-Sis


A Play with words: - try Dialysis.

This cache was placed to celebrate the final homecoming after many months of training.

I have a kidney problem known as "End Stage Renal Failure", brought on by diabetes where the kidneys don't do their work.

The wife and I had been traveling to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital three times a week to learn how to do Dialysis at home.

For home Dialysis I need to have a Dialysis partner (the wife) to stand over and watch me suffer, he he. or is it LOL.

A Fresenius\dialysis machine


Some Specifications:

It is claimed a human body has between 5 and 8 liters of blood.

The Blood pump runs at a speed setting of 300 yielding a blood flow of aprox 280Mls per minute.

The needles are 1.8mm in diameter.

I am normally on the machine for 4 hours (3 times a week),

4 hours equals 240 Minutes x 280 mls = total blood circlated is 67 liters.

I worry that the corners of the platelets will get rounded over!!.

The cache in a plastic screw top container with the usual logbook pencil and small swaps

Please return the cache to the spot you found it including any camo, thank you.

The cache is NOT on Private Property (NOTE NOT) so don't cross the fence.

Many thanks to A.P. for help with the HTML code.

Enjoy, The Grandeeze.
