There, she sees row after row of beds occupied by young women afflicted with obstetric fistula, a childbirth injury that leaves them incontinent and too often shunned by their communities, modern-day lepers. She soon learns that surgery is the only way to end their suffering. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eNo Woman Left Behind\u003c\/i\u003e, Grant recounts her decision to abandon a promising advertising career, and the ups and downs of building Silicon Valley-based Fistula Foundation from a modest start-up into the global leader in fistula treatment. Through vivid firsthand accounts of surgeons toiling in remote corners of Africa and Asia, we see inside the fight to restore hope to some of the world's most vulnerable women. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA compassionate army of donors spanning nearly 70 countries makes such life-changing care possible.
