The family of a little girl in need of a life-saving transplant said their daughter is dying because the state of Minnesota and the state of Florida are battling over the cost of an intestinal transplant.

Four-month-old Sidney Markie was born with a rare condition that prevents her intestines from absorbing nutrients.

She is being fed intravenously but that eventually will lead to liver failure.

Sidney's liver is showing signs of stress and the little girl is visibly more jaundiced than she was 10 days ago.

"I am scared. I am getting frustrated. Its too overwhelming -- everything that is going on -- and it's just ...  there are no answers," said Courtney Murray, Sidney's Mom.

Sidney has been declared disabled which means she is on full state medical assistance.

The University of Miami Children's Hospital is the only hospital that has successfully performed an intestinal transplant on an infant.
