About The Happy Liver Society

Hi my name is Karen Stacey, while I was a patient waiting for a liver transplant I founded the Happy Liver Society of BC. The Society's goal is to provide temporary accommodation for liver transplant patients and their family members who must travel to Vancouver for a life saving Liver Transplant. Liver transplant patients must stay in Vancouver for up to three months following their transplant for post-transplant care as an out-patient.

The Happy Liver Society opened Stacey House in September of 2008 – a “home away from home” for liver transplant patients. It is located one block from the Vancouver General Hospital. It is a one-bedroom apartment that will sleep up to six people. The Happy Liver Society provides for the rent and utilities of this suite.

The Happy Liver Society is raising funds to support Stacey House and to promote awareness of liver disease to the greater public.

Here is a little documentary... 
We promote immunization for Hepatitis A and B, testing of all people for Hepatitis C, and early screening and detection of liver disease in general.

We are active in the community, with promoting liver health, at hot dog sales as well as dances, concerts and actively encourage people to sign the donor registry. The life you save could be that of one you love.

With advancements are made in medical knowledge, it is now possible to be a live donor for family members and friends alike, with minimal risk of harm to yourself.

Thank you for your time.
