HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - Kaiya Mack just celebrated her eighth birthday. The energetic Oahu youngster who sings and dances has overcome a lot of adversity in her young life.
“I was born with gastroschisis, which is a sickness. So your intestines are on the outside of your body. I was staying in the hospital for four months of my life,” she said.

Some of the money will also help provide meals in January for residents at the Ronald McDonald House in Charleston. The charity organization provides housing for families who must travel for their childrenâs complex medical needs.
Before COVID-19, volunteers would go to the house and prepare donated food for the families each night. But they are no longer able to do that. So, OâBryan said she will work with a few local restaurants to provide each meal in January.
About 25 people are in the house each night. So more than 700 meals will be provided because of OâBryanâs fundraiser.
