j****3 发帖数: 756 | 1 After living for 18 years on a donated kidney, Mitchell Yeoh needs a liver
transplant before he can have a kidney transplant, but at number 88 on the
liver transplant eligibility list, he could be years away from getting it.
"I would like to write and illustrate children's books, teaching children
about life lessons and languages," said the Harvard University freshman, who
speaks seven languages including Russian and Chinese, at his family's home
in Fairfield.
He was well enough last summer to visit China with the Greater Bridgeport
Youth Orchestra, but this fall he spent more than 60 days at Yale-New Haven
Children's Hospital.
"It's scary," said his mother, Lisa Yeoh, who donated one of her kidneys to
Mitchell when he was born with a kidney disease. Mitchell needs part of the
liver of someone with Type O+ blood.
"There was one Good Samaritan donor that came for Mitchell at Yale.
Unfortunately his liver was too small," Lisa Yeoh said.
She said a liver transplant now would be a miracle for Mitchell. In fact,
that's what she calls her Facebook page: Miracles for Mitchell. | j****3 发帖数: 756 | | j****3 发帖数: 756 | 3 Everyone who is interested in donating a partial liver for Mitchell please,
call: 866-925-3897
This is the transplant donor referral line. If I gave you a different number
please don't call that number. If you already called that number… No
worries/they will still contact you.Please, remember you must be 0+ blood
type & Call the other number above.
