Philippa and I were both handed death sentences from alcohol.
I needed a liver transplant and barely survived.
Philippa was told the exact same thing… but she completely reversed end-stage cirrhosis – no transplant, no miracle pills, no BS.
999 days to get her liver enzymes normal. A resident doctor cried when he saw her alive two years later.
This is the rawest, most hopeful liver-failure recovery story you will ever hear. I'm not just saying that...
If you’re hiding bottles, lying to yourself, or telling yourself “it’s not that bad yet” – watch/listen before it’s too late.
