Newborn baby in need of life-saving transplant is saved by mother's twin sister who donated part of her own liver to save her tiny niece
A newborn baby with a life-threatening liver condition has been saved after undergoing a transplant from her mother's twin sister.Star Reader was diagnosed with Biliary Atresia within days of being born in Barnsley, West Yorkshire.
After undergoing an operation to have her bile ducts unblocked, her parents, Jade Reader and Matthew Bygrave, were told the infant would need a liver transplant in order to survive.
With neither parent a suitable match, her maternal aunt Shanell Reader offered part of her organ, and has since saved her niece's life.Star's parents feared she was unwell after noticing her skin turning a yellowy tinge shortly after birth.
'We were utterly shocked when we were told what Star had. We had never thought it was anything like that.‘When we knew that it could be life-threatening it was devastating. She was only a few weeks old and yet we may lose her,' said her mother.Both parents volunteered for the surgery but were told neither was a good enough candidate for a partial liver transplant.
Miss Reader's twin sister Shanell was tested and told that she would give the baby the best chance of survival.'She said without any hesitation that she would do it and that Star could have a piece of her liver.
'I was so overcome with emotion. She's my twin sister and if it was the other way round, I'd have done it to save her daughter too,' added Miss Reader.Star underwent the operation in November and, after spending six weeks in hospital. returned home where she has since made a good recovery.‘Star has to have blood tests and liver function tests every week and she will be on anti rejection medication for the rest of her life.‘But now she has been given the chance to live a normal life - and it’s all thanks to my twin sister. I can’t thank her enough,' her other added.
Speaking of the decision, Shanell said: 'I didn’t hesitate to step forward to save Star. She’s my niece and I would do anything to help her.’
