An Alberta family is grateful to be spending Easter weekend under one roof months after their 13-month-old daughter underwent a rare life-saving surgery.
Lukah Mitchell underwent a complete multi-visceral transplant in December after having a large tumour removed from her abdomen. The rare surgery involved replacing a number of organs, including her liver.
Lukah’s fight began in October 2018, after doctors discovered the large tumour that was affecting several of her internal organs. The toddler spent the next seven weeks in and out of a coma, fighting for her life, until a donor was found.
