Just a short note from us to share how far Liv has come this year.
Exactly four months ago today, we were still at Hospice with her, just beginning dialysis. At that point, Liv’s weight had gone up to nearly 19 kilos - much of it water her little body couldn’t get rid of because of her kidney failure. She was so swollen and fragile - it broke our hearts. But still, and despite everything and her being so ill - she managed to smile. That is what kept and keeps us going, she is such a strong little girl.
Today, Liv now weighs 13.7 kilos and, although still small for her age, she’s doing much better—and most importantly, she’s happy and improving as much as she can.
We’ve added two video clips - one from exactly four months ago, and one from now - so you can see the difference yourselves. In the latest video, she’s playing in her new special room (still unfinished, but already full of life and joy). This is the space where she’ll continue to grow stronger, do her physiotherapy, and prepare for her kidney transplant.
There’s still a long road ahead - but we’re walking it together, and we’re incredibly grateful to each and every one of you for your kind and continued support.
With all our love,
Liv, Vitalia & Lasse
