A little girl in Albuquerque is fighting for her life on a daily basis after being born with only half a heart.
Family members describe Katherine Lange as free-spirited, loving and caring.“It’s very tough, you know? It’s definitely a journey. It takes a village because you don’t know what can happen from one day to the next,” Lange said.Lange said his daughter has had three open heart surgeries before she turned three and has had approximately 10 heart catheterizations.But that’s only half the battle for Katherine, as she’s now dealing with liver leakage.
“It has to do with the lymphatic system leaking into the liver and blood goes through the pathways through resistance and pushes down on the liver -- which is causing her albumin to leak,” Lange said. If all else fails, Lange said his little girl would need a heart and liver transplant to save what’s left of her life.
