Probably the best gift a mom can give to her child is the gift of life and for Dominican Marilyn Loblack donating a kidney to her daughter was no big deal.
“When you’re a parent and you go on a daily basis seeing your daughter suffering for so long, there’s no other choice one can make and this is what I’m going to do,” Loblack, who is living in Maryland, said of her action.
Her daughter, Sacha Webster, was suffering from hypertension and Type 2 diabetes which lead to kidney failure. Instead of spending up to seven years going through dialysis while trying to find an organ donor, her mom made a selfless decision to donate her own kidney.
Loblack’s decision made headlines in Maryland and the two are now recovering from surgery.
A mother will always be a mother,will do anything for their children even life and death situation.I salute you Ma’am for giving your kidney to your daughter,I know its a very hard decision you made.
Marilyn Claudette Loblack is the first Dominica mother to donate a Kidney to her daughter, and the first in the Caribbean. Dominica should be very proud of her that deserves a medal
A heartfelt story. For God so love the world that he gave the life of his only son. Not everyone would do it. hats off to u the mother. god’s speed to u both
That’s an intriguing story, I am a personal friend of both Sacha and Mother Loblack, and this to me is a great sacrifice, however thats just the way they live their daily lives, giving and sharing.
I do wish both of them speedy recovery and hope to connect with them soon.
This move is certainly a type of Christ, God so loved, he sent his son to die, corresponding action of Love. This story will forever live on in my heart!!!!
Well said, my prayers for a quick and safe recovery to both of them.
This is true love n not plolitricks

Wow….unbelievable good news. I remember Sacha as a little girl coming to Churchill Lane to visit her aunt. Ran into her some years ago in Dominica as well. This is such a heart warming story. I wish both of you a speedy recovery and long life. God bless both of you.
Claudette we always knew that you would do anything for your two daughters so I am hardly surprised. My prayer is for a perfect recovery to you both and no complications in the future. Sacha you have been through a lot and you are extremely blessed to have such an awesome mom. See you two at the mall soon.

That is a lot of love.I wish both of them a speedy recovery.I hope she the daughter take better care of herself to cherish and take care of that kidney.Both Sugar and pressure are controllable through diet and exercise.
Is there a mother in Dominica who would not do the same thing? I guess not or this person is not a mother!

She did what a mother should do. I often wonder why family members who are matches to organs go out asking for other people to donate when they can give. I wish you all a speedy and healthy recovery
