Mother Donates Kidney to Daughter in Landmark Transplant

Sahasra, a 12-year-old girl, had kidney failure and needed a new kidney.

Her mother bravely offered to donate one.

Because their blood types weren't a perfect match, doctors used a special method to make the transplant possible.

The doctors removed harmful antibodies from Sahasra's blood and gave her medicine to stop new ones from forming.

This complex procedure, usually done in larger cities, was successfully performed at KIMS Hospital in Kurnool.

Now, Sahasra is recovering well thanks to her mother's donation and the doctors' skills.
