The girl wants to donate the liver to save her mother because she is under 18 years old, she is refused.
according to the Hongkong "Da Gong Bao", the 43 year old mother, who is in urgent need of a change in the liver, is still in critical condition. If Mom waited for another one or two days, maybe even the liver could not save it. Michelle once revealed that "good to think, think and think" donated liver to save the mother, but was rejected because it was still 3 months before it turned 18. In the face of her mother's increasingly critical condition, she once again publicly appealed to donate liver to save her mother. She also hoped that the government would make an offer outside the law and consider giving her liver donation as appropriate. A spokesman for the Hongkong food and Health Bureau replied last night that under the existing law, the government of the Hongkong Special Administrative Region has no right to make any discretionary treatment or exemption on this case.
Michelle said that her mother has been suffering from chronic nephritis and suddenly vomited at home on the 1 day of this month, dizzy, walking and fluttering, and being treated to a United hospital. When she stayed in the United Hospital, she was still sober and laughed with them, but the illness turned bad on the 5 day, transferred to the liver transplant center of Marie hospital, and then went into the deep treatment department. On the 8 day, larynx and blood were taken, and now they were unconscious. Doctors predict that she can still replace her liver in only one to two days.
Michelle revealed that other family members of the family because of hypertension or hepatitis B and other diseases, can not donate liver, he had donated blood two times, health, liver problem. The mother turned to the liver transplant center on the first day. When the doctor told the family that the liver transplant was the only way, she suggested that she would like to donate the liver. After the meeting with the doctor, she also put forward "want to think well" and donate the liver. However, the hospital refused to comply with the law. Michelle said that he had read the liver donation manual, understand the risk of the operation, know that the liver has 0.5% mortality and 20% complications, think that he has a mature mind to make the decision to donate liver, I hope the Department in this emergency, consider.
she said her mother took care of the family on a daily basis, took care of all the housework, and took care of her family. Now her mother was in danger, and she had to prepare for the exam. She had no heart to take care of herself, only to eat bread. She said she would sign organ donation after she reached the age of 18.
the Hongkong Hospital Authority said that the bureau had discussed with the relevant government departments on relevant legal matters and had clarified the legal point of view. According to the provisions of the Human Organ Transplant Ordinance, donors of living organ transplantation must be 18 years old, and the Ordinance does not give anyone the right or immunity to the age statutory requirements of the living donor.
