Brayden Outen is an 8—year-old student from the USA. He was an absolutely healthy and active child, did not differ in any way from his peers, studied, played sports, played with friends, until one day he felt unwell.
\Braden’s parents became worried and took their son to the hospital in Milwaukee. After a long examination, it turned out that an aggressive virus is present in the boy’s body, which simply destroys liver cells.
Doctors did not hide the seriousness of the disease from their parents and advised them to search for a liver donor as soon as possible, because this is the only way to return a normal life to a child.
«When we first heard about the transplant, we both almost fainted. We couldn’t even think how serious it was,» Braden’s mom Ruth shared.
Braden was getting worse every day, and he couldn’t find a donor. After seeing how the boy’s parents are worried and killed, a nurse from the intensive care unit named Kami Lorenz, offered her candidacy as a liver donor. She really sincerely wanted to help this family and their child. Fortunately, Cami absolutely approached Braden as a donor. Part of her liver was transplanted to the child, and soon he began to recover.
«There are no words to express our gratitude to her! She is a selfless person who was not afraid of pain to save our child’s life! Now Kami is a member of our close—knit family for us,» said the boy’s father, James Outen.
The boy’s parents were insanely grateful to the nurse for saving their child and invited her to their family photo shoot. Braden has already returned to school, he is completely healthy, feels well and lives an ordinary life of a schoolboy.
