Miya received her life-saving liver transplant at ten months old after being diagnosed with biliary atresia and cirrhosis of the liver. We were incredibly lucky to be approved for a living donor transplant, and Miya received a part of her mom’s liver in 2019. She is now 6 years old and doing well. We are forever grateful for your positive thoughts, prayers, love, and support.
