URGENT: Friends, we're in need of a liver donor for our daughter Nusayba who has Stage 4 cancer. The surgery scheduled for 9/10 was cancelled b/c the surgeon found a last second complication with the donor who made all the arrangements. It’s a gut punch, but we’re hopeful...1/
The doctors are aggressively looking for a liver donor match. Please consider applying to be a donor if you're able to come to Georgetown ASAP for an evaluation this week. They're asking for mainly DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) residents to apply but are open to anyone...2/
The living donor has to be O blood type (positive or negative), 18 to 55 years old, good health, willing to take 4 to 6 weeks off work for recovery. (The liver grows back!) Thanks to all of you we have raised enough funds for the donor's recovery... 3/
You can apply here: medstargeorgetown.org/liverlivingdon… (put down Nusayba Ali as the name under recipient, you don’t have to fill out any other info about her). If you have more questions or need more information you can also call the Living Donor Transplant Program at 202-444-1360...4/
Thank you again to everyone who has helped us during this challenging time. We remain ever so grateful and appreciative for all of your prayers, well wishes, warmth and kindness towards our family and baby daughter. I hope to pay it back and forward...5/5
