A woman who endured more than 200 surgeries has a new lease of life thanks to a heart and liver transplant–but had to be “brought back from the dead” after the operation.
Jessica Manning, 29, was born with heart disease and half a heart and had to have open heart surgery at just five days old. Aged 18, she had surgery to fix a hole in her aorta but then started to suffer from palpitations and her lungs collapsed, leaving her so weak she couldn’t tie her own shoelaces.
