Chris's mother, Carolyn Glaspy had to make a difficult decision. When she returned to his room and sat down next to Henry, still on a respirator.
"I went back and held Chris' hand. I could feel his heart still beating. Chris was always a giver. He always wanted to do something for someone else.
"I talked to him about the decision I would have to make. I told him, 'They're asking me to donate your organs and tissues, and I think you'd want that,'" she says.
Chris's Lungs, live, heart , two kidneys and tissue were recovered.
Chris Henry lives on.....
