“Under care at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, Lorelei awaits her new liver while having dialysis to help maintain her kidney functions. The transplant liver must come from a young person — an infant to small teen.
“That’s hard to imagine,” Ms. Lovelady said. “A family has a heart-breaking situation and then must have the courage to see that others live through organ donation. It’s why April (Organ Donor Awareness Month) is huge.”
