EastEnders Spoilers 12th - 16th Sep 2016

[Perdita]

EastEnders couple Lee Carter and Whitney Dean share a heartwarming moment later this month as they attend their first baby scan together.

Lee (Danny-Boy Hatchard) sets aside his doubts about fatherhood to be at Whitney's (Shona McGarty) side as they get a precious first look at their unborn baby.

Of course, this is EastEnders, so the day wouldn't be completely without drama. First off, Whitney and Lee are surprised to come face-to-face with Denise Fox at the hospital, unaware that she's expecting a baby too.

Tensions are also running high over Linda's continued interference over the baby, especially when she insists on knitting something for her future grandchild.

With Linda fussing at every moment, Whitney finally snaps and reacts badly to her well-meaning behaviour.

All the dramas are forgotten when Whitney and Lee share their touching moment together at the hospital, but with Lee set to leave Walford in the coming months, we have to ask – just how long will this happiness last?

Last night's episode of the soap saw Ben (Harry Reid) make the life-changing decision to give his liver to his dying dad Phil. But he'll learn that the process is a lot more complex than he first realised when he seeks medical advice.

Although Phil has some serious concerns about his son sacrificing his liver for him, Ben insists that he's going forward with the transplant regardless.

True to his word, Ben goes along to one of Phil's routine hospital appointments and speaks to the doctor about the possibilities of becoming Phil's donor.

However, the pair are knocked back when the doctor explains the risks, crushing their fresh hopes of Phil making a recovery.

Not wanting to hear the news, Phil storms out, but with Ben determined to save his dad, what will they do now?

how can ben function without a liver or does it grow back, im not familiar on liver transplants so excuse my stupidity

[kaz21]

They take a piece of bens liver, transplant it into Phil, it will grow back in Ben and grow in Phil into a new liver for him.
"Because the liver has a unique ability to regenerate (grow back) when part of it is removed, a living donor’s liver will grow back to almost its normal size after recovery from surgery."

It all depends though on the state of Phil´s liver .. if it is too damaged already, he will need a complete liver, not just a piece of one. However, I guess that the usual soap healing in next to no time will occur once more :p

[kaz21]

I read that they just take the old one out, replace with the donor liver and it will grow

I hope Jay returns soon
