Show Notes
Patricia Gerrish, a Clovis woman battling stage-four liver disease from NASH, is desperately seeking a living liver donor to save her life. Her condition has led to cirrhosis and organ failure risks, and shes running out of time. Doctors suggest a transplant, but shes not eligible for a deceased donor list. Her MELD score is too low, and she risks getting too sick for surgery if she waits. Shes pushing for a living donor, where a healthy person gives part of their liver that grows back fully. Potential donors must be under 65, have a BMI of 30 or less, and match blood types A positive, A negative, O positive, or O negative. Her family believes one person can change everything.
