درباره این اپیزود
In this powerful and raw episode of The Chronically Unbalanced, we sit down with an incredible mum who shares the terrifying journey that began just six weeks after giving birth.
What started off as mild cold-like symptoms for Emily quickly spiralled into a life-threatening condition.
From being rushed to hospital, separated from her newborn and husband, to hearing the words “you need a heart transplant”—this is a story of unimaginable trauma, resilience, and survival.
She walks us through the shock of an ICU admission, the rollercoaster of transplant surgery, and what it means to live with a new heart—only to face devastating rejection years later. But through it all, she shows up, keeps fighting, and is slowly finding her strength again.
This is not just a medical story. It's a human one. A mother's one. And one you won't forget.
