Are you a match?

By 965koit on April 4, 2019

A family in Wisconsin needs your help to save their 5-month-old baby boy.

Marcus Albers was diagnosed with liver disease after birth and is currently in the ICU at the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. He needs a partial liver transplant. Without it, he will only have weeks to live.

Since no one in the family is a match, they are making a desperate plea and hoping a stranger will save their baby’s life.

None of the family is a match so they are hoping a stranger will step in and save their baby’s life.

Here is what they are looking for:

-A person with the blood type of either O positive or O negative.

-Donors also must be under the age of 40, weigh less than 150 pounds.

-They must not be pregnant

-They must be in good health, and be a non-smoker, a non-drinker.

Anyone who thinks they could be a match, contact a Froedtert Hospital Living Donor Coordinator at (414) 805-1437 or (414) 805-1438.  Or e-mail at marcustransplantchw@gmail.com .

You can also help cover the family’s medical expenses by donating to their GoFundMe page.
