## Summary

Salahaddin Abrar, an 11-month-old Canadian boy, died on 19 April from acute liver failure while awaiting a transplant. His parents say they are still grieving seven months later and keep his high chair at the dinner table; they also question whether his early symptoms were properly assessed, raising concerns about his care.

His family says he was taken to Surrey Memorial Hospital on 17 April with vomiting and pale stools, then sent home with electrolytes and anti-nausea medicine. They allege his blood sugar and pressure were not checked, and that he remained unresponsive for around 10 hours before a nurse prompted doctors to reassess him. He was transferred to BC Children’s Hospital and then airlifted to Edmonton for a transplant assessment; Fraser Health expressed condolences but cited patient confidentiality and did not discuss his care.
