Brother needs a liver transplant

Published

Just found out my brother has Hepatitus and needs a liver transplant. He's been sick for weeks. We all assumed it was from scrapping coral while scuba diving in MEX. We thought the onset of a severe infection was causing his symptoms of weakness. And his inability to walk was due to the area where the scrape occurred. WRONG.

He's been put on the transplant list at Duke University. If any of you know the "in's and out's" of organ transplant, please email me. We are truly devastated that we may loose him.

Please keep him in your prayers. And, thank you in advance for any info you can offer.
