Hilario, a 3-year-old boy who has been on dialysis since birth, will receive a kidney transplant from his mother in the coming days. The surgery aims to improve his quality of life after several previous attempts failed. “His grit, joy, and will to live do not allow us to lower our arms,” said his mother Marina.
