Megan has been living with an autoimmune disease that affects her liver since she was three years old. When her health sharply deteriorates at the age of 23, she needs a new liver. She is admitted to the hospital and waits there for a donor.

In the documentary From Within, made by her brother Oligar, we follow Megan during this impactful period. From the moment her life becomes increasingly restricted and she can barely do anything anymore, to the liberating news that there is a donor liver for her. Her family and the caregivers around her also share what this period does to them.

After the transplantation, Megan slowly gets her life back. She feels healthier than she has felt in a long time and looks with gratitude at the donor who made this possible.
