No Longer Sick: A Young Man's Struggle with Chronic Illness

by Allison Greene

No Longer Sick chronicles the latter stage of a young man’s decade-long illness with End Stage Renal Disease. Told from a mother’s heart, the account reveals not only the physical aspects specific to kidney disease—multiple hospitalizations, dialysis, kidney transplant, immunosuppression—but also the social, emotional, and mental hardships. This book is about youth, pain, post-traumatic stress disorder, opioid use, financial distress, family conflict, navigating a complex health care system, grief, and what goes into losing a person.

The book honors a brave young man for his valiant fight.
