Organ donation is really an unconditional gift and there are not many things in life that are unconditional these days,” said the boy’s mother, Katie. “Beside having my own children, this is the most satisfying thing I’ve ever done. Knowing that I was able to help rid myself of the fears of this family and give them hope meant the world to me,” said Sandy bravely. Little Sonny was born with biliary atresia, a condition that affects liver function. After exhausting treatments that did not work, it was considered necessary to find a graft to live with. “When you are told that your child needs a transplant, you start to think, “How will we have this instrument?” confessed the child’s mother. Sandy wanted to help people any way she could. A trigger to give part of her liver stood her husband Jim, who also previously needed a liver transplant. “I decided to go to the Cleveland clinic because our experience with my husband’s surgery was absolutely incredible. I never had surgery, so I was nervous at first. I just focused on all the good things that this would do,” says Sandy. Sonny now thanks to the great gift Sandy gave him is healthy, happy and very playful. Katie and Sandy plan to stay in touch and are excited to watch Sonny grow up thanks to organ donation.
