Five years ago I was in a coma and fighting for my life after ‘catastrophic liver failure’ (the doctor’s words not mine) when my donor’s family made the impossible decision to donate their son’s organs.
We never know what the future brings, but for organ recipients the future is a bit more blurry. So I make no excuses for living every day like it could be my last, and so far I’ve had the best extra five years imaginable. Happy liver-versary to me.
