Moran Kadosh, a four-year-old Israeli girl flown to England for a liver transplant in April, flew home Friday after recovering from the operation which saved her life. Moran’s case hit the headlines when passengers on the El Al jet bringing her to Britain spontaneously donated 4,500 Pounds Sterling to help her parents meet the cost of her treatment.
Before leaving London, Moran’s mother paid tribute to the doctors and nurses at the Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge and the generosity of the passengers who had accompanied them to Britain. “She looks so well, just like a normal little girl” said Mrs. Kadosh.
