Steven's Story: Alcoholic Liver Disease

Informações:

Synopsis

Earlier this year Steven was diagnosed with alcoholic liver disease, and consequently, cirrhosis of the liver. Years of alcoholism had done near-irreparable damage to his liver, and though his doctor warned him to never drink again, continued consumption of alcohol pushed him into the final stages of liver disease -- doctors tell him that he now has less than a month to live. He hopes others can learn valuable lessons from his cautionary tale; Steven joins us live to share his story and his day-to-day fight to prolong his life long enough to make it onto the transplant list.
