In episode 38, Host Niall McKay has an illuminating conversation with Jessica and Ian Travis about Jessica's journey with PSC, her search for a liver, and how her husband Ian became her live donor. "I had alot of issues when I was first listed (for a liver transplant). I was having alot of panic attacks. I couldn't figure out why I was having them. I think alot of it was not having control over the situation." says Jessica. According to the couple, their story involves lots of assistance and kindness from others along the way.
