Posted/updated on: February 3, 2011 at 3:47 pm
MARSHALL — A Marshall family is desperately seeking a kidney donor for its 16 month old daughter. 16-month-old Charlie Ray Furr was born with only one functioning kidney. The kidney was set to be removed last Tuesday, and Charlie Ray was expected to make a full recovery. However, during the operation, the good kidney was compromised, and then removed along with the bad organ. Now, Charlie Ray is at Children’s Hospital in Dallas undergoing life-saving dialysis treatments. A prayer vigil for Charlie Ray will be held in downtown Marshall Thursday night. Hundreds are expected to attend.
