Hi @drdung86. Welcome to Connect. I'm sorry to hear about your baby girl, but it sounds like you are doing all the right things. Here is some information from Mayo Clinic about treatment options for hemangiomas: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hemangioma/diagnosis-treatment/treatment/txc-20202405. Has your physician discussed whether laser treatment is an option? I'm tagging @cobs and @donna38 who have posted about hepatic hemangiomas and may be able to provide some insight on treatment. Hope this helps!

For any country that does not have adequate facilities for laser therapy, it might be possible to start a non-profit organization dedicated to providing such laser therapy. The Gates Foundation might provide advice on how to proceed.
