Born with a rare liver condition, 5th grader Malachi had life-saving surgery at @UCLAHealth when he was just 5 weeks old.
Thanks to early care from his UCLA Health GI and Liver Transplant teams, Malachi is thriving and was able to cheer on his favorite WNBA stars live at a game — including Cameron Brink.
A proud supporter of women’s sports, Malachi is an inspiration to us all. 💜💛
