In February, 2020, Will underwent a laparoscopic procedure to remove a portion of his liver, which helped save the life of 3-year-old Ian Charles, who was suffering from a rare type of liver cancer that can affect babies and young children.\nListen in to learn more about Will\u2019s story, and why EMS Gives Life encourages first responders to give a\xa0small piece of themselves to give someone else a new chance at life \u2013 and help address the chronic unmet need for life-giving organ donations.
