Fox News Chief National Correspondent Ed Henry is going on medical leave to try and help save his sister’s life.

Henry’s sister Colleen is suffering from degenerative liver disease and Ed is going to denote his liver to her. “I am determined to do whatever I can to give my sister the greatest gift of all, which quite simply is life, Henry said.

He goes under the knife tomorrow. “I will be donating approximately 30 percent of my liver to my sister at a hospital in the Northeast. I will undergo about six hours of surgery to remove that portion of my liver, and in an operating room next door Colleen will go through about eight to ten hours of surgery to entirely remove her diseased liver and replace it with part of my liver. The liver is an amazing organ that will then regenerate in both myself and my sister after the transplantation. While we know going in that nothing is for certain, if some semblance of the game plan is accomplished, we will each emerge from surgery with our own healthy liver.”

Henry had to prepare for the operation. ““I reduced fat in my liver by like half by changing diet, cutting alcohol and the volume of my liver shrunk, which is what you want, because it was expanded and it had elevated levels that you didn’t want. And look, I’m helping my sister, my sister helped me. She made me healthier, so I love her and we’re going to get through this.”

We wish him and his sister nothing but the best and huge props to Ed for showing his sister so much love.
