Oh my! What an incredible and inspiring life story! And she is the kind if person I want to be more like. She kept surprising me with each story. I cried with the transplant story, we had a son who had 3 kidney transplants starting at 6 years old. We were so thankful to the the families who gave our son life. Thank you Rip for bringing her to us.
Carolyn...what a warrior you are
I really like Rip's work and videos because he is so different and reasonable person and not claiming to be a guru such as the other vegan UA-camrs - I really appreciate that!
If it wasn't his work I probably won't be plant-based any longer because of those gurus which are so annoying for me and do make people to forget the main values of the diet and most important for me the health benefits for us and for our loved once.
So great job Rip and thanks for all of your efforts to present the plan - based lifestyle as something normal, accessible and healthy instead of trying to just make money from it in a ugly way!
Hearing doctor Dawns story makes me really appreciate and be grateful for good health. The human body is truly amazing.
We are fearfully and wonderfully created.
Dr. M’s enthusiasm is contagious. What a courageous woman. Thanks Rip for another great interview.
Dr. Mussallem is such an inspiration. She has endured so much and still retained her spark for life. Thank you for this incredible interview, Rip. I'm recommending it to my friends.
This is such an incredible story and so inspiring. Good health is a gift and we should always everyone thing to protect it. I look forward to meeting Dawn one day!
What an incredible person. What an incredible interview. I've never felt such optimism from one person ~ how inspiring. My "baby sister" (64) is just days away from meeting her maker ~ she is dying from Glioblastoma. She had symptoms in February, 2022 and after being dismissed and misdiagnosed, she was formally diagnosed on June 16, 2022. The range of emotions one goes through as a patient and family member is enormous. Videos such as these have been presenting themselves to me at the time I am in need. Though my sister will no longer be here ~ I am alive...... WFPB for nearly nine years. Thanks again ~ Janet
My ❤️ breaks for you and your family Janet, I'll be praying for you and sending you hugs.
@@lynn7348 - Thank you Lynn, I so appreciate it! Live life to the fullest (and healthiest).
Another inspiring story. Dawn's patients are blessed to have her as their doctor and I feel blessed to have heard her story. Thank you Rip.
What an amazing story! What an amazing woman! Thank you for sharing her story. Thanks be to God that she got a heart transplant and may He use her for the rest of her days.
I’m from Detroit, MI and Wayne state university medical school now has a required course in plant based nutrition for 1st year students.
I just found this podcast yesterday and it truly inspired me. I ended up in tears at the end. I have flirted with the plantstrong life style and have really struggled ( with myself) to get back to it. I am in the middle of battling a cancer diagnoses and needed this inspiration. Thank you Rip for this amazing interview with this inspiring Dr!!!!!
Wow …what a courageous brave woman ….such an example …❤️
How true, what a gift of life Dawn is.
Her gratitude has to be shared with others. This is the way to live- in grace and gratitude for every single day we have been given
How inspiring Dr Dawn is! Thank you Rip for this great interview
This was incredible to listen to. Such an inspiring story. I am certain Dawn makes everybody’s life better for just being in it . Dawn is so full of love light and gratitude. I am a nurse and I work with cardiology patients …several waiting for heart transplants and I will most definitely share this with them. I’m going to share this with family and friends as well. Thanks so much Rip for researching and finding her story as we can all learn so much from Dawn💕

Your story is so incredible because of your attitude and unwillingness to not give up. I am so inspired. Thank you for sharing your story. I sent your story to my daughter, shared it with my mother-in-law, and want to try to have 50% of your positivity.. I know you had so many hard times in your life that I don’t take glibly. Even after I listened to your story, I still don’t know how you kept working and being a Mom with such advanced physical deletion and I don’t know how you kept such a good attitude and perspective. You are truly an example of how to traverse adversity well. I will listen to your story again and probably again because it somehow gives me hope. Thank you again. I wish you the best and hope your running aspirations come true and any other aspirations that you have!!
Wow.....what an amazing person!! Her energy is infectious......I’m so glad you shared her story!! 😍
I wish you asked the Dr. What she eats in a day. Is there a chance that she can respond to this question?
Such a wonderful and uplifting story! Thank you so much for sharing your health journey and your faith!
I’ll have what she’s having !!! What a beautiful soul . Wish I could meet her in person ❤ another great interview!
This is an incredible story and man the twists and turns. Acceptance and grace are very clearly in her dna. It’s so wonderful Dawn has listened to her dreams and kept putting one step in front of another. Kudos to this incredible forward looking lady.
I just found this episode by accident. I have stage 2 breast cancer with mets to the spine. I love Dr. Dawm and Rip also.
This was so inspiring and incredible to watch and listen to. So happy she's doing so well after everything she has been thru. Thank you
Dr. Dawn smiles more than me and I see why, wow❗️ The anticipation of a "real" family vacation (as she put it) would keep me smiling too though 😊💕
Brilliant conversation. Post traumatic growth is huge!
Courageous Dawn! I liked the ' grace' part best. We all tend to crib and this gets us nowhere! And the Universe helps us when we feel grateful!
I loved hearing how God was w Dr M every step. So inspiring how she loves life. Someone told me the # 5 represents grace...wasn't her transplant on the 5th?? Thanks Rip..
So happy for you. Thank you for sharing your story.
Wow! She's SO energetic and positive!
what an incredible story...true inspiration for all who will listen...great interview Rip
This was amazing and gave me mega hope, I’m going through breast cancer for 2nd time and no one has ever talked to me about the food I eat, I wish I was close to a Mayo Clinic and I’m just amazed by Dr Mussellum story truly inspirational ❤
Awesome interview!! God's continued blessings!! Thank you, thank you!!
Thank you for being such an inspiration to others. Your story is so amazing and I love that you are so open with your relationship with God. He is using you in such a mighty way!
I feel that her foundation of health and trust in her beliefs as a young child contributed to her life force allowing her to go through these challenges and allowing her to be here for her family, patients, and the rest of humanity. What an inspiring life and example for us.
May we all be great full for the good things in life and the beauty of this earth.
WFPB, for the Earth and All it’s Creatures!
What positivity ya this is amazing! So inspirational
Brilliant! Thank You!
Dawn...take the time/moments to study the history of the natural hygiene movement starting in the 1800's...this was the early seeds that started the foundation for the 'plant based' movement and it should be acknowledged and recognized because it was the beginning...
AMAZING!!what an inspirational woman 👏👏
Amazing, inspiring, encouraging! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Best Podcast ever.....
Terrifically inspiring...and also she must have had wonderful insurance and/or a ton of money...to pay for all those interventions. What a resilient marvelous young doctor.
What an awesome person!❤️What I wouldn’t do to have a doctor like her.
Agreed!
Amazing Grace 🙏❤️🎁🙏 God bless you always 🙏❤️🙏
She is pillar of miracle and God’s wonderful hands over his children.
Wow! She’s a super woman. Thank you for being a great example of living!
We agree!
This does not seem to be related to plant base diet , just her personal life
Thanks
I just got through listening to this interview a second time and it should be mandatory as a reminder, but, the 'norm' can't/won't take an hour and a half to surrender to this journey...thanks for sharing Dawn, and thanks Rip for the facilitating...
I dont understand she ate most of her life yet had this happen! Glad she is doing great.
Would a whole food plant based diet help, or reverse NAFLD? I appreciate you and your family! I've been watching your videos.

Registered as an organ donor as I listened to this podcast
I'm a fan and a whole food plant based advocate myself but I'm not going to lie when I say that listening to her in this is very tiring on the ears.
I think she's just extremely happy to be alive. She sounds hyper because of her excitement.
I'm sorry for her illness, but I don't like invasive procedures and I have, and will continue to refuse so called "preventive" testing.
Amazing Grace 🙏❤️🎁❤️🙏God bless you always
