A Connecticut woman diagnosed with chronic liver disease is hoping for a live donor. Patients with a living-donor liver transplant may have a longer survival rate and fewer medical issues after the procedure than those who receive a liver from a deceased donor, according to the Mayo Clinic website. 
Sandy (Saucier) Archer of Haddam, 47, was diagnosed in August 2022 with a chronic autoimmune disorder that attacks the liver. She and her family are encouraging people to consider registering as an organ donor. with Yale New Haven Health. “Archer’s physician told her last Summer that she had a 20 percent chance of survival in the next year. Having a living donor allows the recipient to avoid possible health complications while waiting for a transplant, the Mayo Clinic website said”.
