What is biliary atresia? Biliary atresia is a rare condition in newborn infants in which the common bile duct between the liver and the small intestine is blocked or absent. If unrecognized, the condition leads to liver failure. The cause of the condition is unknown. The only effective treatments are certain surgeries such as the kasai procedure, or liver transplantation.

Thank You

We would like to thank everyone who joined the Dinner for a Cause last November 6 -- including those who  bought the tickets even if they knew they couldn't come, and those who simply gave the amount without getting the tickets. No words in writing can express our gratitude and so we're posting this video taken during the dinner in the hopes that our gratitude will reach all the people who made the fund raising event a success.



We would also like to share this video built by Ms Maureen Hernandez, a co-worker of Raymond from MVC, and was shown during the dinner. It gave information about biliary atresia and the status of Wacky's fund raising. We hope this will also raise the awareness about biliary atresia on newborn babies.
