Unexpectedly however, ten years after the transplant, the new kidney failed. Her physician recommended that she return to dialysis, but she resisted, unwilling to once again pass her days undergoing the treatment. In the end, her condition deteriorated and she died, not yet 40 years old.
沒想到換腎 10 年後，腎臟又不行了，醫生建議她再回來洗腎，但她始終抗拒，不願意再過洗腎的日子，最後病情惡化，去世時還不到 40 歲。
