[TEASER] Chewbacca Visits Sick Boy, Tells Him He's Getting a New Heart

A sick boy got the surprise visit of a lifetime when Chewbacca stopped by his hospital room on Saturday, March 17, to tell him he’d be receiving a heart transplant. According to a post from the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, Austin and his physician, Dr Thrush, had made a deal when Austin was placed on the transplant list that if a heart became available Thrush would deliver the news dressed as the famous Star Wars character. In this video, Austin discusses his St Patrick’s Day plans when he receives the life-changing news. Credit: Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago via Storyful
