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.

Images of Wacky

Upon arrival in Taiwan (they left the Philippines last Apr 13), tests were performed between Wacky and his Mother, Carees, to check liver compatibility.





 

The operation was scheduled on April 19th...








Caress trying to walk a few days after the operation...she was later discharged from the hospital last Apr 27.






Wacky has gained weight since the operation. =)
