Emma Rothman grew up in Cranford, NJ. In 2011, Emma received a life-saving heart transplant in New York City and was forced to surrender to the messiness of her life. Before her transplant, Emma was an active athlete and student and after her transplant; Emma was still a student and athlete; but, she discovered a newfound energy to pursue a life that centered around not taking her health for granted. One month after her ten-year heart transplant anniversary, Emma had the privilege of graduating from Syracuse University with a degree in Food Studies and Nutrition
About the Book
At the age of twelve, Emma awoke one day in a hospital bed with no knowledge as to why she was there. She soon learned she had received a lifesaving heart transplant. Struggling to find the balance between being “normal” and chronically ill, and dealing with issues of body image, guilt, anger and ego, Emma found herself on a long journey to recovery that went beyond her physical health. Things My Therapist Doesn’t Want Me to Say, by Emma Rothman, is an intimate, unfiltered conversation between Emma and readers, who will follow along Emma’s journey as she tries to let go of finding a reason for all the chaos in her life. Emma explores feeling at home in her body while identifying as chronically ill, and engages readers by questioning the narrative of ‘anything is overcomable if you just try hard enough.’
