At the age of eleven, Mark Greene nearly died. Neither he nor his
parents knew that Mark suffered from end stage renal disease; he
would need a kidney transplant to survive. Now, more than
twenty-six years after his successful transplant operation, Greene
tells the story of his survival following that operation.
Currently, there are approximately 170,000 organ transplant
recipients in the United States, each with unique stories but
sharing the commonality of improved quality of life. In Life and
Hope, Greene discusses important principles that will not only
contribute to the longevity of organ transplants, but also help
recipients continue to improve their overall well-being. He blends
personal experience and academic research to both teach and
enlighten in a way that brings meaning to organ transplantation.
Greene shares a very personal story about his ordeal with a
misdiagnosed illness that nearly took his life and nearly destroyed
his family. His story is one of transformation, as he moves from
the brink of death to a life full of meaning-a unique story and
real-life experience that demonstrates how the organ transplant
experience so eloquently contributes to the human experience.
