Her liver was shutting down, she had lost a dramatic amount of weight because she was too nauseous to eat and her body felt like it was on fire and numb at the same time.
In moments of lucidity, she was aware of the sadness in the eyes of loved ones surrounding her, but she was often unaware of her dire situation due to heavy doses of pain medication.
Thanks to a team of dedicated medical professionals – and someone's decision to sign up as an organ donor – Deborah, 51, is alive and feeling better than she has in years.
She and husband Mike want to thank everyone, from the medical professionals to people around the world who prayed for her as she underwent two liver transplants last summer.
"I am so thankful about how many people were so intimately involved," said Deborah, who is still running into strangers who come up and tell her they prayed for her throughout her ordeal last summer.
