"Never forget ‼️⚠️In 2021, Leilani Lutali was in stage 5 kidney failure. She already had a living donor, Jaimee Fougner, a friend from Bible study. UCHealth in Colorado told them the transplant was on track. Then the policy changed.Both women were given 30 days to start the COVID vaccine or be dropped from the list. Leilani offered to sign a waiver. They refused. The hospital’s line was simple: no shot, no kidney.She did not die on that list. She and Jaimee went to Baylor in Texas. The transplant went ahead without the mandate. Kidney function jumped from about 5% to 73% after surgery.A willing donor. A dying patient. And a hospital that made the injection the price of staying alive.Never forget they did this.
