Andrea, liver function and the holidays

This is the second episode of How Is Anyone Still Alive? About 6 minutes in, Andrea details being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis at the age of 8. She explains how her main coping mechanism became alcohol, which led to an addiction problem around minute 13 -- and how she made all of this into a very personal documentary. 35 minutes in, a listener asks a question about taking care of themselves during the holidays.
