LACKAWANNA COUNTY, Pa. This is the story of two mothers and their young children and all the good that can happen when someone gives the gift of life.
It starts with a woman named Nofar Flesher from Taylor and her twins, one of whom, baby Noam, was born with a serious liver disease. Honestly, you re not thinking. You re in pretty much survival mode, Nofar said.
Little Noam had surgery at 1 month old to try and fix the issue. But as he turned one, doctors told Nofar he d need a liver transplant.
