A young mother and father are devastated and heartbroken following the tragic death of their baby girl. Hannah Muskett and Lewis Brittain didn't know they were having a baby until Ava-Louise was born in a hospital toilet.
Although the couple were completely shocked at the arrival of their daughter they were said to have been absolutely besotted by her from the minute she was born in September 2021. Shortly after she was born doctors Ava-Louise with a very rare genetic condition called Alagille Syndrome, which meant she would a liver transplant, the Manchester Evening News reports.
Both Hannah and Lewis were a match and volunteered to be a donor, but it was mum who took the incredible decision to give a part of her liver to Ava. The surgery was initially a success and Ava's body accepted the new liver, but sometime afterwards she went into kidney failure and developed sepsis. She tragically died a few days later on June 1.
