A Metro Detroit mother has relied on a mechanical heart pump for years while she’s waited to get on the organ transplant list.
She said she knows a lot of people have lost their mothers during the pandemic and, while she waits for a heart transplant, she feels especially fortunate to be home with her family.
“It means the world to me to be able to be with my children and my husband this Mother’s Day,” said Tiara Johnson who was diagnosed with COVID-19 while waiting for a heart transplant.
