It is a reality that someone in Canada dies every three days waiting for an organ transplant; for some patients, they are lying in their hospital beds, waiting to be given a second chance at life. Some are fortunate to receive that organ or gift of life, yet for many, they don’t survive because the organ they require is either not available or doesn’t get there in time. Christine Jowett was only thirteen years old when she became jaundiced, fatigued, and endured bouts of right abdominal pain. Having lived with autoimmune hepatitis for twenty-six years, Christine’s disease finally took its toll on her and she ended up in St. Mary’s Hospital, where she works as a cardiology nurse. In order to save her life, she was then sent to Toronto General Hospital to wait for a liver transplant, yet, her situation continued to deteriorate as her kidneys were shutting down. Now at forty-one years old, a mother and a wife, it still remains a mystery as to why Christine developed chronic autoimmune hepatitis, a disease that for so long through her life she was able to manage with few medications. Life Goes On is a moving story of her life, which tells of her sickness, facing up to the possibility of losing her family, and the struggle to regain the normality of life after her operation. After the tragic death of an anonymous hero, Christine is given the ultimate gift of life, a healthy organ, on one very special day.

This book details Fatimas journey as a two-time liver transplant recipient. The book is also about how her health struggles affected her personally and how the youth who have grown up with chronic illnesses can have normal yet special lives and how their families cope and become their strength. She also writes about how families from very different ethnic backgrounds come close together and form a strong bond in the pain of their children and their common challenges. She discussed the medical mistakes, which become life-changing for so many, and how there should be more acknowledgment of them rather than putting a lid on them. Finally, Fatima talks about how she came to spread awareness about organ donation; shares her story through social media, media, and public speaking; and how she came to be a part of a community of transplant patients, donor families, and those with chronic illness who united together through diversity and helped each other during their struggles. This book details how her life changed after her second liver transplant and the medical mistakes that Fatima endured.

Liver Transplantation (LT), until recently the ‘forbidden fruit’, is the newest, the sexiest, the most controversial and arguably, the most technically challenging subspecialty of Surgical Gastroenterology to have mushroomed in India. In a journey spanning 12 years, 28 centers and 1500 liver transplants, we imagined there would be a gripping story to tell. It was only appropriate then, that we chose to inaugurate the series with an overview of Liver Transplantation. In the last 2 decades, the field has seen rapid progress with 1- and 5-year patient survival improving from 80% and 50% to 90% and 80%, respectively, owing to technical refinement, and better immunosuppressants, intensive care, and patient monitoring. Despite being a relatively new entrant into the field, India can now boast of at least some islands of excellence that have caught up with the "best in the west". This means the evolution of LT in these centers has been fast-forwarded up a steep curve. We have come a long way from the point of every LT being considered an experimental procedure with much media and public hype to one where it is accepted as a successful and durable panacea for all liver failure. The popularity of teams running successful programs in India has swung from being ostracized when the chips were down, to being celebrated and envied when the going became good. The focus has shifted from immediate to long-term survival, from surgical heroism to building multidisciplinary teams, from anecdotal to hard data and from media reports to scientific publications. ‘Fly-by night’ operations are on the decline as realization of their futility dawns on new centers and transplant teams. They are now happier to take the longer route of developing trained in-house teams. After spending a good part of the last decade honing the technique of living donor liver transplantation, we are becoming more sensitive to the morbidity and mortality risks to the living liver donor. We want to minimize the liver volume removed from the donor, and want to develop techniques of minimal access. More importantly, we want to train our guns back on pushing donation after brain or cardiac death. We have begun to maintain databases, are getting into audit mode and want a National registry. We want standardized treatment guidelines and training curricula. We want to take part in multicenter trials and further meaningful clinical and laboratory research. As a community, the liver transplant doctors of India are on a warpath of progress. We want it all and we want it now! The first step to the march into the future is to size up the past and the present. That is what we have attempted to do in this volume.

Penned in real time, from the hospital bed while battling for life, on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone' s 4x2 inch keypad, the only device allowed to the patient in her super-sanitized recuperating room, this book follows a hybrid format of medico-psycho thriller, interspersed with SMS chats, transcripts of medical records, and other workings of an addled mind overcome by sickness, yet determined to pull through. It is a first-hand account of a liver transplant recipient' s journey in India, chronicled from the patient' s perspective in vivid detail as a series of dramatic events unfold in her life, completing the cycle from sickness to health, despair to hope. It also tells the story of a single mom and breadwinner of the family, her strong bonding with her adoptive daughter, and her family and friends' support. The author hopes that this book will give courage and direction to other patients whose lives are hanging by a thread, patients awaiting a life-saving cadaveric organ donation.
