ASHLEY'S ANGELS FUND

In January 2009 previously very healthy 2-year-old Ashley became yellow (jaundiced) and she was diagnosed shortly thereafter with a condition called acute liver failure, a very serious condition in which her liver function was deteriorating rapidly and a liver transplant needed to be performed imminently to save her life. Ashley was prioritized on the National Transplant List, however her urgent medical situation required us to act quickly and consider the living liver donor program... Ashley's Aunt Cheryl was a perfect match. Cheryl heroically donated a portion of her liver that allowed Ashley to receive this life-saving treatment. We are so incredibly grateful for Cheryl's gift of life!
