This may be a biased review, as I am Ali's mother. If anything, this story understates the bravery and determination of Ali in her quest to both give birth to her child, and to survive this mysterious disease that was destroying her heart. Her courage and positive attitude gave strength to all of us who were trying to be there to support her. Told in her own voice, this book can provide hope to anyone who is facing a life-threatening ordeal.Product details

Against Doctor Orders eBook Ali Weinberg Barton Reviews
Excellent book. Could not put it down.
As a fellow transplant patient - I kept saying, Yes! This book provides insight into both the emotional and physical recovery of a transplant. On a side note - we all have a poop story ;-) Thanks for sharing your story Ali.
Those who battle chronic conditions, must pick their battles. Ali chose her baby's life over her own. She won the fight through great sacrifices. This is a story of dedication. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!
Such a emotional journey with a very blessed ending. You never know the struggles of others. Great strength, love and determination are this book.
Ali is not afraid of her own shadows, she speaks her truth to the core of every experience she has endured the past few years. Those ups are so high and the lows are heart breaking. Her honesty is her strength and she is just as inspiring in person. Her love for Ethan is endless and I am blessed to have them in my family's life. Thank you for sharing your story and bringing to life your donor through your courage to keep persevering.
An awe inspiring story by an awe inspiring woman. This book could also be entitled "'Against All Odds". Anyone who knows Ali, understands that she's a force of nature. As her father's brother, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when reading the chapter where Ali confronts all the medical personnel who begged her to abort. I can picture her dad's face as he looked at the window realizing that the race was on and there was no way to stop it. This has the makings of a good movie. Only, no sequels, please!
I am lucky enough to know Ali and be in the background during her pregnancy and transplant. Reading this book was inspiring. The fight and determination she has for her family is amazing. There were parts of the book that made me laugh to remember and parts that made me cry. I'm so glad that as someone in a medical profession to know that sometimes we are wrong. Her sweet boy is proof of that!
