https://britishlivertrust.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/Sheryl-dog-crop-111650.jpg1080875Although she's worked in entertainment all her life, Sheryl was always quite shy so would have a drink before going on stage. When her brother tragically died, she began to drink more and had a mini breakdown. Since then she has tried rehab and, after being diagnosed with alcohol related liver disease, she was listed for transplant. However, her health then began to deteriorate and Sheryl is now receiving palliative care. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us, Sheryl.
