Saving Sarah Hardback
by Janet Murnaghan
Hardback
Description
Sarah had been dying of cystic fibrosis since the day she was born.
The disease quickly ravaged her lungs and little body bit-by-bit.
Fragile and frail, she had only weeks to live, when her mum realised the reality of Sarah's situation: transplant laws, restricting access to lungs based on arbitrary age restrictions, meant Sarah's options were limited.
The injustice of her daughter's fate spurred Janet to start a public battle against outdated health care regulations and a battle to save Sarah's life. Janet transformed her pain and desperation into a voice for Sarah and other kids using social media as her megaphone with friends and family as Sarah's warriors.
How does a family navigate catastrophic illness and life in a hospital, while still maintaining a sense of normalcy?
Saving Sarah is a story of hope and courage, and a mother's determination to never give up.
It's also the story of how a family - Janet and her husband Fran have three other children, one adopted from Ghana - reacts and adjusts when one of its members is in ongoing crisis.
