Claire Murray, the young, 25-year-old mother of two, died from complications following a second liver transplant in 2010. Her story caused a media frenzy in the lead up to the "live liver" transplant because Claire was a drug addict, hooked on heroin and amphetamines for 12 years. After her first liver transplant, she slipped back into the drug habit, thus requiring a second.
This story was filmed as Claire and her family were preparing to fly to Singapore for the operation.
