"If it weren't for Jesus, I wouldn't be here," Miller said.
The 62-year-old Mansfield resident is a liver and kidney transplant survivor. She endured her first liver biopsy in 1989.
"I was diagnosed with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis," she said. "It's a disease of the liver that's not caused by alcohol. It's a disease that hits middle-aged women."
In the 1990s, Miller began seeing a specialist in Columbus who told her she would eventually need a liver transplant. The side effects of the liver disease were tumultuous, she said.
"I just had this will to live -- you have to have that. I know I'm here for a purpose."
Shouldn't she have thanked the skilled surgeon and the organ donor instead? And what did Jesus have against the guy that had to die to give up his organs?
