"Life in the Hospital"

Eccoblue | Kelli Jaunsen

An inspirational retrospect of 'life in the hospital' by our colleague and friend Kelli Jaunsen who received a heart transplant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on February 1, 2007.  Kelli's transplant journey is the basis of her novel 'Not so Brave' which contrary to her book's title is a very brave young woman doing a terrific job in raising awareness for organ donation.  Please post a comment and wish Kelli the best in celebrating her fifth transplant anniversary this month!
