My 18th birthday. Got out of the hospital that day after having been in for nearly a month. Turned out I had a rare liver disease and the doctor told my mother I had a year to live. Sorry to disappoint, but still alive, still struggling with the liver disease. Survived cancer 11 years ago. Married, two daughters – 6 years and 10 months old, been patiently waiting for a liver transplant for four years now.
