Most hotels will take deliveries of fluid.
You have to submit details of your holiday to the PD ward at least 3 months in advance (at least on my ward they do) including details of the hotel and booking confirmation numbers.
Most places, espeically in the US/Canada will have had some experience of catering for dialysis patients, so I shouldnt worry too much about that side of things.
As for places to go- well, Baxter will deliver almost anywhere in the world, including rural Pakistan from what I've heard. I guess its up to you. I'd definately try and keep it as simple as possible, especially if its you're first time abroad on PD. And maybe take a few bags to tide you over for a day in case.
I'm off to Chicago in March, and am nervous but really excited to get out of the country. I think it will do my confidence the world of good. Its easy to feel trapped etc being on dialysis and going on holiday and doing exchanges away from my familiar environment will be great
