Book excerpt: Curing Courtney is the empowering true story of a mother and daughter's triumph over the deadly autoimmune hepatitis that threatened to take the life of 7-year-old Courtney. After five years of treatment by some of the best pediatric hepatologists in New York City, the doctors told Courtney's mom, "The meds aren't working." The next step for 12-year-old Courtney was a leukemia-type drug and a possible liver transplant.
