2 month old needs heart transplant....
| Wed, 02-25-2009 - 10:30pm |
....and although his parents have health insurance, the ins. will NOT cover transplants! I heard this on our local evening ABC news station. The little fellow is 2 months old, and needs a 1.5 million dollar heart transplant....the ins. will not cover transplants, hospitals and doctors will not do the surgery "pro bono" and the parents are seeking donations via the internet. The little fellow's name is Laith, but I didn't catch the last name, and I am trying to find the website, but am having no luck. Any help? Does anyone here know anything about this?

There waiting lists for heart donations. Even if they had the money could they get a heart that matches?
This story is getting plenty of publicity so it's possible they'll raise the money.
