Gift of Life 39 The Organ Transplant Podcast


Listen Later

In this touching episode, we delve into the remarkable tale of Sue Green, a nurse who faced a life-altering diagnosis of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Sue recounts her experiences from grappling with a challenging diagnosis to undergoing a life-saving liver transplant, graciously provided by an unexpected source – her half-sister, who selflessly stepped forward as a living donor.

 

Join us as we examine:

• The hurdles Sue encountered in obtaining a correct diagnosis.

• The emotional and physical ebbs and flows of her transplant voyage.

• Her unique viewpoint as a healthcare provider turned patient.

• Common misconceptions surrounding fatty liver disease and its ties to dietary habits, beyond just alcohol consumption.

 

Sue is also the author of "Don’t Call My Liver Fat: Liver Transplant 101," an honest and enlightening book that sheds light on liver disease and the intricacies of transplant procedures. You can purchase her book on Amazon or at your local bookstore.

 

Whether you are a medical professional, a patient, or simply intrigued by organ transplants, this episode offers optimism, knowledge, and encouragement.
