Pune: A heartbreaking story unfolded when a 25-year-old pregnant woman was involved in a road accident. She was 38 weeks along and sadly suffered a brain injury. After the accident on January 20, she was rushed to a local hospital and later transferred to Manipal Hospital.

In a twist of fate, she delivered a healthy baby while in the hospital. However, her condition worsened, and doctors declared her brain dead just a few days later. Her family, in a remarkable act of kindness, decided to donate her organs.

On January 24, medical teams retrieved two kidneys, a liver, and two corneas. These organs went on to save the lives of three patients. A 29-year-old woman received a kidney, while a 50-year-old man with severe liver issues got the liver he desperately needed.

Dr. Vrishali Patil from DPU hospital praised the family’s decision, highlighting the courage and compassion behind organ donation. It’s a tough situation, but their choice has made a real difference in the lives of others.
