Imagine being a beautiful 15 year old competitive swimmer, and waking up one day to find your body grossly swollen. Thus began Bethany's battle with Chronic Kidney Disease. In her own charming and direct manner, Bethany skillfully narrates her journey through being bullied in high school because somedays no shoes would fit her swollen feet, through her first few years away at college, only to return home to begin dialysis and pursue a transplant. Her problem solving attitude towards life with a chronic illness can teach us all about dealing with adversity, and coming out a winner.
