Seema and her family were among many such families who were felicitated by AIIMS and Indian Society for Trauma and Acute Care (ISTAC) today on the concluding day of the sixth International Congress — TRAUMA 2013 — for deciding to donate the organs of their loved ones after their death.
Surbhi (16) was declared brought dead at the AIIMS Trauma Centre on September 13 after the wall of an under-construction building collapsed and fell on her.
Putting her grief beside, Seema decided that she will donate her daughter’s organs to the needy in order to give them the ‘gift of life’. ‘I wanted my daughter to remain alive and that is why I donated her organs. Today she is alive among other people whom she has given life,’ said the Krishana Nagar resident.
