Special Forces Command Lt. Colonel Trevor Hill, also known as Uncle Trevor to Hudson, traveled across the country to donate a portion of his liver to his nephew.
Two of his comrades died instantly. Hill was rescued and has wanted to pay back by giving life. Twelve years later, he paid that debt with a piece of his liver. He became a living liver transplant donor to his nephew, Hudson, just one-years old. Trevor Hill underwent surgery at UW Medical Center and 15 percent of his liver was bagged and boxed for Hudson's surgery, just two miles away at Seattle Children's.
