Molly and Lydia's Story - Living Liver Donation

Lydia donated more than half of her liver to her childhood friend, Molly, just a few months ago.

Due to their religious beliefs, they did not want to receive blood products, and they had the utmost confidence in their surgeon, Dr. Abhi Humar, and his team at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
