When Traci Tigue delivered baby Brodie in May of 2015, she was able to go home from the hospital straight away.
But less than 10 days after giving birth, Traci started noticing a few warning signs that doctors hadn’t noticed when she was discharged from the hospital.
Like this mom who picked up on something odd in a Facebook photo of her daughter, Traci thought there was something off about her baby’s skin and eye color.
Traci brought him straight back to the doctor, but she was told not to worry and that it would go away with time. Fed up, and noticing more alarming symptoms like purplish bruising around the eyes, she brought him in for a second opinion.
Concerned, the new pediatrician sent them to the hospital, where doctors confirmed Traci’s suspicions: her newborn had a liver condition. Specialists quickly determined that the best option for saving Brodie’s life would be a liver transplant.
As in the case of this mom whose liver transplant saved two lives, Traci turned out to be the right match for her little boy. The family set up a GoFundMe to help with expenses, and a Facebook page called Brodie's Good Vibe Tribe to keep friends and supporters updated on the progress. Finally, On October 19, 2015, mom and baby went into surgery.
Just hours after undergoing the operation, Traci and Brodie finally got to reunite after doctors determined that the procedure was a success. Watch the touching moment when Mom sees her baby again in the beautiful video below!
