A four-year-old girl in Madison, Wisconsin named Lyla Carreyn was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder about a year ago, and her kidneys started failing.
So she’s been on dialysis, and went on the transplant list. No one in her family was a match, but she needed a new kidney or she’d die. So things weren’t looking good.
Then about two weeks ago, her mom got called into Lyla’s preschool . . . they claimed it was to meet a new teacher. But when she got there, two of Lyla’s teachers sat her down and gave her a box with a note inside.
It turned out one of THEM was a match, and the note said she wanted to donate one of HER kidneys. Her name is Beth Battista.
They also recorded the whole thing with a hidden camera and posted it online. Obviously Lyla’s mom was pretty emotional.
Apparently they have a few more things to take care of before the transplant can happen. But they’re hoping to do it early next year. (WABC)
