Questions are being raised about the case of a 36-year-old Ontario woman who died of liver failure after she was rejected for a life-saving liver transplant after a medical review highlighted her prior alcohol use.
The point the person you replied to made is that she didn’t completely stop drinking alcohol once she was diagnosed to have a terminal liver disease due to alcohol use.
So first of all, she must have drank a lot more than 3 drinks a week to have terminal liver disease in her 30s that’s due to alcohol (yes, all of that is in the article)
But the issue is she didn’t stop drinking after being diagnosed, she reduced her consumption but didn’t stop it.
If any of the above is incorrect, feel free to correct us, but making a point that’s completely missing the facts that are being talked about here doesn’t add anything to the discussion.
Are you on purpose missing the point?

The first point is correct. The second one is shown to be wrong in the second paragraph.
The issue here is you need to have stopped 6 months or more before, and she was only diagnosed 5 months before she died.
