Knox was born with a rare genetic condition called OTC Deficiency. As a result, his body could not process protein properly, causing toxic ammonia levels in his body. Knox was a severe case, and his genetics team suggested a liver transplant as his best course of treatment. His dad underwent living donor testing, and they learned he was a perfect match! In August 2022, at just 5 months old, Knox received a portion of his dad's liver, saving his life. ππ Learn more about living donation and register your decision to be an organ, eye and tissue donor at DonateLife.net
