From Death to Life by Marian Adejokun
My name is Marian Adejokun, I was diagnoized with a deadly, rare illness known as Stevens Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TENS) back in January 2011. I remember as if it was yesterday... I was at college and told my teacher my eyes were itching me from there I went home and informed my mom and she told me to call the doctor's office and I was told by the doctors to buy over-the-counter eye drops (Optrex). My mom administered the eye drops into my eyes and within 30 minutes, blisters started coming up under my feet and my whole body (pouring water on myself was excruciatingly painful).
