A powerful true story of organ donation and transplantation in Australia — honest, insightful, and at times, unexpectedly funny.
Some stories are unfathomable.
This is one of those.
Leonnee is told her heart is failing. What follows is not a single moment of crisis, but a relentless series of them. Travel, waiting lists, machines, and choices no one prepares you for, as she navigates care between rural Australia and the city.
Recipient is a deeply personal account of life before, during, and after transplant.
This is not a story about being saved.
It is a story about what it means to keep living.
Again and again.
