Publisher Description:

Amanda B. Hancock's medical nightmare began when she was thirty-four. She was diagnosed with liver disease and put on dialysis as she waited for a liver transplant. When she and her anxious husband, Dan, finally got the call that a liver was available, they were ecstatic. They couldn't believe their luck.

Unfortunately, this was far from the end of the story. Hancock received news that she had osmotic demyelination syndrome. It was a traumatic neurological injury that stopped her from performing even the most basic of tasks. At the age of thirty-five, she had to learn to walk again. Everything was new, and every task was difficult.

However, Hancock wasn't about to give up. This wasn't the end of the story, either, and she was determined to write a happy ending for herself. Through her vivid prose, Hancock takes you back to the early, traumatic days after the transplant and recounts the amazing strides she made in her recovery. Her surprisingly humorous stories of time spent in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and adult nursing facilities (with Dan always by her side) show you the true power of hope, optimism, and determination.
