A bout of ulcerative colitis in 2018 started a downward spiral for Morgan McCoy's health. In 2019, her colon perforated and an infection led to the amputation of her left leg, forcing her to drop out of the University of Oklahoma during her senior year. Then, a lymphedema diagnosis evidenced by 30 pounds of fluid.
You'd never know any of this by the smile on Morgan's face. Her credo? "I could pout and be sad or depressed, or I can get up and just keep going. It's a choice." Her choices led to her recent graduation with a degree in chemical engineering, and she's headed back to school for her MBA.
Be inspired by Morgan's story, and learn how she uses the revolutionary Optimal Plus by Lympha Press to manage her condition.
This interview was recorded in June 2021. You can watch the video recording of Morgan's interview on the Lymphedema Channel on YouTube, or on Instagram IGTV at @lympha_press.
