If You'd Only Listen asks the question: "How Far Are You Prepared to Go to Save the Life of Someone You Love?"
371,000 patients die every year in the U.S. from preventable medical errors; 424,000 are left with ongoing disabilities (Johns Hopkins & Harvard).
The author and her husband knew nothing of this when they had to move out of state for his liver transplant, due to an impossibly long waiting list in their home state of California.
If You'd Only Listen is a trip through medical hell, but thanks to the author's midwestern tomboy grit and determination, she prevailed over a medical system that seemed bent on defeating her and her husband. The horror is leavened only by the author's wicked sense of humor.
The ADDENDUM presents a deep dive into medical errors and offers recommendations for how you can prevent errors from ending the life of someone you love.
