Is living donor transplant being considered? I understand the liver is one of the organs for which it’s possible.

I do not know if they would be willing to try it but if so I’m planning on having them test me to see if I would be a possible candidate.
I’m so sorry to hear this! I’m saying prayers for Norine and that a liver becomes available soon.
You know we care about you Norine. Get better.
This is Ray again with an update.
I spoke to her doctor late last night (he called me at 2:30am this morning!). Currently she is unconscious, on a ventilator and essentially being kept alive by the drugs, skill and dedication of her doctors. I am truly grateful such people exist in the world!
It appears that some of her liver function is returning, not much so far, but any function is good as from what I understand the liver is the only organ that can regenerate itself, so if any part of it is functioning then maybe it will repair itself and a new liver will not be necessary.
The next 12-24 hours will tell the tale, and I will update this thread when I know more.
You can make it. Hang in there.
