A  man has given his mom the greatest gift ever… life. Brian Bolduc knew his mom Rose was in trouble because Doctors told her she needed a new liver. She was put on a transplant list for a donor but started to rapidly get worse.

That’s when Brian found out he was a match and realized the liver is the only organ that regenerates. So, he got checked out, but doctors gave him the thumbs down because he was overweight and was on the way to getting the same disease his mom had. They said he would have to do one thing to help his mom: lose 80 pounds.

He obviously had the greatest motivation of all…to save his mother! Brian got to work and with the help of his partner he dropped 40 pounds! It took creativity, like replacing pizza crusts with caulifower crusts, but he did it until he hit the magic number of 80.

In June, Brian qualified to be his mom’s donor. Just last week, the surgery took place and both mom and son are recovering well. Rose is beyond thrilled that her own son saved her life! She said “I feel so good that my son was able to save my life. I will never forget what he did.”
