Christine JowettChristine Jowett is a registered cardiology nurse at St. Mary's Hospital. She enjoys being a nurse and helping patients with heart disease and plans on using her nursing background and experience as a transplant recipient to educate others on the imprtance of the gift of life.

Despite having written many essays and scientific reports for university, Christine never envisioned herself being a writer. However, when she was admitted to hospital for her liver transplant, she began to keep a journal in order to remember the details of her stay, what the doctors had told her, lab results, and so forth.
