- Peritoneal Dialysis: A Bath for my Belly explains the purpose and experience of treatment called peritoneal dialysis. Written in easy to understand language with vibrant illustrations, this book explains that the treatment helps people who have kidneys that don't work so well and need help. The story uses an analogy that compares peritoneal dialysis to a bath, to explain that the treatment cleans our blood just like a bath cleans our body.
