Jeremy Libon was born with a three-chambered heart. Doctors told Jeremy’s parents he would have to undergo a series of operations that would give him a 50 percent chance of living until the age of two.
Not only did Jeremy survive—he went on to lead a fulfilling and vibrant life until his death, just before his nineteenth birthday.
An expert at making the best of bad situations, Jeremy decided to create a survival guide to help other children cope with their own illnesses. He started writing while he was in the hospital and continued to add to the book right up until his death.
After Jeremy’s death, his mother, father, and brother added their own perspectives, creating a book aimed at helping families deal with the challenges of living with a critically ill family member.
Offering practical suggestions for parents about how to advocate for their child in the hospital, this book also contains important insights on family dynamics and shifting roles.
Part memoir and part self-help book, Jeremy’s Hospital Survival Guide is an invaluable resource for anyone looking for a model of how a family can band together and weather one of the most devastating ordeals imaginable.
