During their time in Tokyo, Lily had been born with unfathomable medical issuesrequiring seven grueling surgeries to put her little body back together.Now, at age seven, she was whole. The family was planning a triumphant return to life inthe U.S. It was going to be filled with good health and happiness. They were done withhospital stays, and were starting over.Unfortunately, weeks after returning, Lily required her eighth operation and then doctors discovered that she had chronic kidney disease and would eventually need a transplant.What came next for Lily was a downward spiral into anger, frustration, confusion andhostility, and her mother Sarah went right down with her. This is the harrowing story of a mother and daughter’s pain, depression, and hurt so deep it came to a breaking point. I thought We Were Done is a fast-paced story filled with a rollercoaster of emotions showing the long-lasting impact that medical trauma has on a family’s mental health.Main Messages:A family’s extraordinary journey through Lily’s complex medical challengesA divorce and remarriageMultiple cross-country relocationsFinding wholeness and healingThe strain of managing chronic childhood illness while a spouse works overseasNavigating the healthcare system across different states and countriesThe impact of rare medical conditions on family dynamicsMental health issuesThe resilience required to rebuild a marriage after divorceProtecting a vulnerable teenager from toxic relationshipsA path from crisis to recoveryhttps://www.sarahdeschamps.com/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbEx2VUtmUldiQnZQRDI3Mkc0Z1JqbTlfZUx0UXxBQ3Jtc0trOVJEYldQQ1ZINDBPakFoLXhOUURRczR3aEFkVnpWUkktVU5JZzdqV0VLcHhtN05ORUZOT0pJQU51VEJTWGsxME0zZzVXTVpCbWhTM3VKM2JESVRxQ2IwRXJ1Q3h5UC1KUFN0Um9pYnNfX1dka2U4UQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sarahdeschamps.com%2F&v=5Ptjkd-Yiac]https://the-curiosity-box.pxf.io/KjnOjv [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa0F1TmRfV3h5SldiNHpINHRJT3ZCSW1vdEFFd3xBQ3Jtc0tuWnJ3Sk5rUW8zODlGTWs2aXl2bWxic2J1SmYzUld4TEhJTUpYcXBucFNpMi1NMjNybXhNVWNIOE5GTlFjenk4ekZIOUlhVFQ3ejdHVmJEZGlwaHJ1NjR3MTRwYkZjcTdUaWItVkh5S3NFdG1jX01VSQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fthe-curiosity-box.pxf.io%2FKjnOjv&v=5Ptjkd-Yiac]🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
