19 Apr
Summary
- A grandson donated a portion of his liver to save his grandmother's life.
- The patient battled liver cirrhosis, requiring a transplant as the only option.
- Both donor and recipient livers regenerate, a complex but life-saving procedure.
A remarkable act of love and resilience unfolded as a teenage grandson, Aditya Raj, volunteered to donate a segment of his liver to his ailing grandmother, Sunita Devi. Sunita Devi had been battling severe liver cirrhosis for over a year, facing repeated hospitalizations and deteriorating health.
Doctors determined that a liver transplant was the sole definitive treatment. With no other suitable family donors, Aditya stepped forward after rigorous medical, psychological, and legal evaluations, meeting national transplant protocols.
