Good news: Dan Miller?s son received a new kidney

UFC fighter Dan Miller has been on a long quest to find health for his son, Danny, who was born with kidney problems that required near constant dialysis. Finally, Danny has kidney function after a kidney transplant on Thursday.

Dan's brother, UFC fighter Jim Miller, shared the good news.

The word is that everything has gone well with my nephew's transplant. Both Danny and my Aunt came out strong. TY everyone for the support

Danny's kidney transplant was made possible in part by support of the MMA community. When insurance wouldn't pay for the transplant, Miller's fight gym held fundraisers. Jim gave the proceeds from his UFC on Fox 3 walkout shirt to his nephew's cause. Cage Potato designed and sold shirts, too.

Now, we get to see the happy ending to the story. Danny finally has kidney function.
