| Transplant miracle |
| A 15-year-old Australian girl has changed her blood group from O negative to O positive and taken on the immune system of her organ donor. Demi-Lee Brennan, described by doctors as a "one-in-six-billion miracle," received a donor liver when she was 9 years old after her own liver failed. Her new liver's blood stem cells then invaded her body's bone marrow to take over her entire immune system, meaning the teen no longer needs anti-rejection drugs. |
