Thinking about Cana's surgery, that Kana is now a part of
little Cana, Taka is left with a wonderful peace of mind.
I thought that this was a great addition to the game, as
it gives us a look at Taka's life post-Kana. Great use
of symbolism, and the tie-in with little Cana makes this
something really special. Not quite as good as having
Kana alive, but it makes us feel better knowing that
Taka has already come this far, and we know what he
goes on to do from Ending 6.

VIII. CRI - Chronic Renal Insuffeciency: The story behind the real disease
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) is a condition in which the kidneys
gradually lose their ability to perform their normal functions, such
as the removal of wastes and extra fluids from the body.
Another important function of the kidneys is to regulate the
amounts of nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, involved
in the growth process. Children with CRI may have difficulty
attaining normal height and weight for several reasons,
including slow bone growth, malnutrition, and problems
using protein.
One of the main reasons for this growth failure centers on vitamin D.
Vitamin D is an oddball nutrient in the fact that it must be activated
by the kidneys in order for it to work. Once activated, vitamin D
helps the body to absorb calcium from foods, and also helps the
bones absorb the right amount of calcium to enable them to grow.
When the kidneys are impaired, they are unable to activate vitamin D,
therefor bones cannot get enough calcium, and the growth process is
interrupted.
Often, the signs and symptoms of CRI aren't evident until after the most
serious damage has already occurred. As CRI progresses, the kidneys
may fail to the point where either kidney dialysis or a kidney transplant
become necessary just to keep the patient alive.
Although a kidney transplant can return a child's growth process to
normal, by that time any growth potential may have already been lost.
That is why therapy with human growth hormone (HGH) prior to kidney
transplantation is an important component of the treatment strategy for
CRI.
Although ARI, the Acute version of CRI, is curable, there is NO CURE
for CRI other than transplantation. The odds of a CRI patient surviving
a transplant surgery, much less finding a matching donor, are extremely
low.
