Baby Receives Rare Lifeline After Being Put on Transplant List

Baby Receives Rare Lifeline After Being Put on Transplant List
Daniel was given months to live – and with thousands of children not being able to survive long enough to find a donor, he was given a rare second chance.

Daniel McCabe wasn't going to last very long if he didn't find a liver donor fast.

This 4-month-old was given months to live due to a rare liver disease that was destroying his whole body. Daniel's skin had a yellowy hue and his organ had reportedly turned into "scar tissue the consistency of wood".

The baby is in the one half percent of people who have ever waited that short of a time for a donor.

Thanks to a 30-year-old man who had recently passed away, Daniel was taken into surgery the next day. According to his parents, he's healing wonderfully.
