Dee Dee, I'm so very sorry. Words can't help the hurt right now. She is so very young. Mine will be two on 04/09, so I can sort of place myself in your position. Prayers going out to you though.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I don't know anything about liver failure, but it sounds very serious. I wish you luck and many happy years with your little one.

I'm so sorry to hear about Karleigh's health issues. Is the liver failure a result of the diabetes and now that you know what to do, will her liver health return? I'm in SE Michigan. Please let me know if I can help you. Prayers and big hugs going out to you and your little girl!!
