This is really heartbreaking.....!!!
Dr. Maryam Shoukat's Journey
She was a brilliant and determined young doctor from a small town in Pakistan, was a shining example of hope and resilience. A graduate of Gujranwala Medical College, she embarked on her USMLE journey with a dream of joining a residency training program in the United States. With exceptional scores in USMLE Steps 1, 2, and 3, she recently arrived in the USA for a clinical observer-ship in New Jersey, paving her way to this year's residency match.
But fate had other plans. This young doctor, weighing only 120 lbs, faced a life-threatening challenge when she developed Tylenol toxicity, leading to Acute Fulminant Liver Failure and Acute Respiratory Failure.
She died just half an hour before she was due to undergo a life-saving liver transplant at Rutgers University Hospital in Newark.
She had moved to the US with hopes of serving people through medicine, but earlier this month she was struck by acute liver failure. Her condition worsened rapidly, leaving doctors with no option but to recommend an urgent transplant.
