SUPERIOR - An eighteen-month-old Superior boy desperate for a kidney now has a donor.
We told you about Jackson Beattie's story last month.
It was tough finding the right match, given his blood type.
But his parents say Jackson's 20-year-old cousin will donate his kidney to him.
Surgery is set for July 12 at a children's hospital in the Twin Cities.
His father says Jackson is still his bubbly self, despite his health issues.
