Perfect for readers moved by Between Two Kingdoms, this life-affirming memoir of a young woman's sudden autoimmune kidney failure reveals a resilient journey of chronic illness, unfailing love, and moving forward with joy.
JENNIFER CRAMER-MILLER was a twenty-two-year-old with a promising job, charming boyfriend, and cozy Seattle apartment. Then she was diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disease, and suddenly, rather than planning for a bright future, she found herself soaking a hospital pillow with tears.
THAT DAY, Cramer-Miller crossed over from wellness to chronic illness: from thriving to kidney failure. Her chances of survival hinged upon expert doctors, selfless strangers, and benevolent loved ones. But what kind of life would that be?
SPANNING TWO-PLUS DECADES and four kidney transplants, this family love story explores the tightrope of uncertainty, the will to survive, and the determination to find joy. Cramer-Miller shines a bright light on the power of people helping people with a story that will inspire you to hug the humans you love. Because sometimes, it's the sorrows that threaten to pull us apart that ultimately unite us with hope.
