A Transplanted Life: My Story and Guide On Transplant Success (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

At age thirteen my world was turned upside down. The summer between my eighth and ninth grade changed my life forever. I went from rarely stepping foot in a doctor's office, to becoming so familiar with them I frequently found myself napping on the exam table. I spent the next several months being passed from one specialist to the next like unidentified matter. However, at age fourteen, I discovered the answer to my failing health: I was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis. Two years later, after three different hospitals, countless doctors and several surgeries, I was the fortunate recipient of a liver transplant. A Transplanted Life: My Story and Guide on Transplant Success was written for two reasons: to share my story and offer useful, practical advice to patients and parents alike, who are going through a similar experience. Because of the dual purpose, the book is separated into two parts.
