We got a call yesterday from Stanford that Elijah had a donor match. We are so grateful.

So at this very moment Elijah is in surgery to receive his brand new liver. The surgery will be the better part of the day, so we will give you an update as soon as he comes out. Until then, here is what we need from you #TEAMELIJAHV…

1) Leave encouragements or prayers as comments on this post. Shana and Miguel could sure use them during this emotion filled day!

2) Continue to donate to COTA on behalf of Elijah. The procedure may be today, but Elijah and his family have a life time of prescriptions and medical visits ahead of him. Every dollar you give goes to COTA to assist patients like Elijah with transplant-related expenses! http://cotaforteamelijahv.com

3) Make a valentine for Elijah and share it on your page with #TEAMELIJAHV! I know the traditional valentine has a heart on it, but maybe we should do some with livers?! Let’s use Valentine’s Day to show our love to Elijah and his family as well as continuing to spread the news that he needs our support.

Thank you #TEAMELIJAHV! We will keep you updated as the day goes on.
