Guest guest Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 http://www.newsweek.com/id/170359 Conventionally speaking, I'm unhealthy. But perhaps it's time we redefined the word. By Kim Lute | NEWSWEEK Published Nov 22, 2008 Over the years, I've become inured to hospitals, needles, ambulance rides and promises of doom and gloom. Twenty years ago, when I was 15, I was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis. At 22, I underwent a liver transplant. By 24 I had developed ulcerative colitis and two years later I had my large intestine removed. These two early diseases then begat a third: primary sclerosing cholangitis. PSC, a liver disease, prompted a second liver transplant when I was 28... And she still runs 2 miles a day! Arne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
