Thank you.'In the emotional encounter, Sharon, Dor's mother, presented a small lion doll to Lielle's family, saying, 'We brought Lielle this lion so that our Dor will always watch over her, strong as a lion.'Avi, Lielle's father, addressed Dor's parents, saying: 'Your Dor continues to live through our Lielle.

My daughter was born anew thanks to your son.'Dr. Yael Moser-Glazberg, Director of the Liver Transplant Unit, addressed the Zimel family, saying: 'Thank you for giving this sweet baby a chance at life. It is an indescribable nobility of soul. 'We share in your profound grief and thank you on behalf of the hospital for the greatness of spirit to save lives in such a difficult moment. I wish both families full health and good news for all.'The Schneider Children's Center for Pediatric Surgery is the leading hospital performing the majority of pediatric organ transplants in Israel.
