An abdominal transplant? Like on Grey's Anatomy? (feat. Ali Emerald)
Manage episode 356267717 series 3379969
Brooke & Ali (aka @TransplantBesties) talk on this episode about Ali’s most recent surgery, a freaking abdominal wall transplant!
If that sounds familiar, you’ve probably only heard of it on Grey’s Anatomy (Megan Hunt vibes anyone?).
Ali is always great to have on the podcast because she shares her perspective, wisdom, and experience so authentically.
Beyond her surgery, we talk about:
- what it feels like to be heard and validated by a medical professional
- the value in having a small support system and what it means to hold space in really difficult moments
- the role of fear when walking into the darkness
- Surgery as rebirth
- Having a menty-b and less stressful coping strategies
- Advice for healing and complications post-surgery
