Next on our agenda is to raise some funds to put in to Dyamond Ott's personal C.O.T.A account. and finally to bring our community,family & friends together for a day of fun games and cars.
Who is Dyamond?
Dyamond Ott is a 13 year old girl from Ankeny, Iowa, who was diagnosed with a liver disease, Progressive Familial Intra HepaticCholestasis - Type 3, at the age of six. Dyamond was put on medicine immediately, but she spent the next several years making visits to the University of Iowa Hospital every couple months. In December 2005, Dyamond was evaluated by the transplant team at the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, Nebraska, and on September 21, 2006, Dyamond received lifesaving liver and kidney transplants. I wish i could say it ended there ,but in December of 1999 Dyamonds younger sister Dallas was diagnosed with the same disease doubleing the stress and finacial burden on this family.
