The youngest dialysis patient in Samoa, Lei’a Misa, might have been discharged from the hospital last week but her fight is far from over.
As a matter of fact, her condition is deteriorating.
According to Lei’a’s mother, Hana Misa, her daughter is unlikely to get better unless she finds a new kidney.
“My daughter is in so much pain,” said Hana.

“I feel sad every time I look at her. Even the doctors have been encouraging us to find her a kidney. They say that’s the only way she can be cured.”
Ms. Misa said her daughter is brave but she is afraid she will not be able to keep fighting forever.
“Right now Lei’a’s sickness is affecting her heart and also her livers so she is in twice as much pain.”
“I wish I could carry her pain for her because as a mother it breaks my heart to see her like this but there is nothing I can do.”
“I am only praying that someone out there will be able to donate a kidney for my daughter.”
“I know it’s hard and our family is asking so much from but this is our only hope and this is the only way that my daughter will be able to relieve from the pain that she is in right now.”
Ms. Misa is hoping that somewhere out there a Good Samaritan who will be able to help her daughter with a kidney so that she can live a normal life, free from the pain she is suffering now.
