00:39You're really blank because in your mind, you think that the disease can be treated with medicine.
00:46But the transplant, you're really blank. You don't know what to do at that time.

01:46Through my advocacy, I have been blessed with the opportunity to directly impact lives for life-saving liver transplants.
01:56I have seen children who were once frail and suffering now brimming with life and energy.
02:03I have seen parents once gripped by fear and uncertainty now filled with hope and gratitude.
02:11It has been one of the most fulfilling endeavors of my life.
02:16The foundation and Tulfo's goal is to save the lives of children affected by a serious condition of the liver.
02:23Every transplant is part of a life saved and a family given new hope.
