Update

We do not know anything at this point, but I want to share this. I decided I needed to meet whoever's child was getting the other half of the liver, so I made a trip around the waiting room until I located this young lady with a red wagon. I asked her if her baby was having surgery and she started to cry. She told me she was getting a liver- I just grabbed her and hugged her and told her we were getting the other half. They are from Jackson, Mississippi. The little girl, KaKeiria, is 2. The mom, Temeka, is here alone. Her husband is in Miss with their 4 year old who has a cold. She is so alone. We brought her to our part of the waiting room (which is full) and have adopted her. How sad to be alone. Then the tears flowed as she told us that her first baby boy had died of this liver problem at 13 days old. Okay folks...are you using tissue yet? I am. She works at a nursing home as an aide, and she said they had just started to try to save some money to make it through this time, but since it happened so quickly (3 weeks) she had not had the time to save much. Now you know we are going to have to help this situation out. Once the baby comes out of ICU she will go to Children's and then after 2 weeks they will go to the Ronald McDonald House. Pray for Mary. Pray for KaKeiria.
