Four-year-old Evie Doherty in London was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. The disease is fatal and has made Evie suffer three strokes. By the age of three, she needed a new heart. Her mother sums up how the ordeal was like:

Obviously, such an awful situation to be in because your child is really sick and you are inevitably waiting to hear for somebody’s tragic fate that can give our child a life while someone else’s was coming to an end.      
Nicole Doherty, Evie’s Mother      

After a long period of suffering, she is finally healthy after a heart transplant and is ready to go to school for the first time.
