A heart transplant saved Ava Kaufman's life. Now she's working to help and house others whose lives depend on organ donation.
Los Angeles Twelve years ago, Ava Kaufman was fighting for her life. Now, thanks to a donor heart and successful organ transplant, she's alive -- and saving others.
"My life changed on a dime," said Kaufman, who was a professional dancer and black belt in taekwondo when an autoimmune disease went undiagnosed and wiped out her muscular system. She ultimately ended up on life support in intensive care with organ failure."I went from living this big life to not knowing how I was going to survive."In what she calls a series of small miracles, Kaufman was given a second chance at life.
