Kelly Langwell, Brother, Server, and Brilliant Human and Liver Transplant Survivor
from Dare to Be Great, Dare to Be You Hosted by Shawn Langwell · host shawnlangwellwriter
All I Want for Christmas is a New Liver So I Can Live There are best-selling guided journals out there like "Bro, tell me your story." But those are guides, this is the raw, unedited real deal from my brother Kelly talking about his downfall with alcohol and the "Christmas Miracle" five years ago when he was literally given a liver transplant that saved his life. This is our heartfelt, real conversation about the incidents leading up to that miracle and how we both have battled our own inner demons from our dysfunctional upbringing, including our escape with drugs and alcohol and how we've lived to tell the story. Beyond these events, and the fact that our youngest brother Seth wasn't so lucky (after years of battling his own demons, he lost the battle, falling asleep at the wheel in 1999. He died instantly in a car crash two weeks shy of his 29th birthday) we are sharing this story with the world because it might help a few people or their families find the courage, strength, and resilience to keep fighting and never give up. May the brotherly love we share be a light to guide those who are still suffering and encouragement to help them (or you) ask for help. ____ about this show____ Downloads of the Dare to Be Great, Dare to Be You Podcast have increased by 200% in the past 30 days.
