Success
Stories of Organ Transplant Recipients Organ
donation is an opportunity to give life to others. Life
had become impossible for these people but
everything changed when a
dying person decided to donate his/her organs. We
hope that these stories ease the agony of those
who are in need of transplant and inspire people
to make a decision for organ donation.

I
am able to convey this message to you only because a
couple donated the heart of their 14 year old son, who was
declared brain dead after a fatal road accident. As a mark
of respect to the donor's family, my family members and I
have decided to donate our body organs."
Mrs.
Preeti Unhale was a normal young and energetic girl
attending college, playing badminton and enjoying her life
to its fullest when in October 1993, she started with the
feeling of tiredness and heavy palpitation. It worsened
over a period of time leading to chest pain and
hospitalisation. She was constantly on medication and was diagnosed
to have Cardio Myopathy. In March 1997 her condition
deteriorated. She underwent a Heart Transplant in January
2001. Today she is leading normal life, taking care of her
household duties, and working full time.

that more and more people involve in donating
organs". - Mr. M.P.A. Nair, brother of the

Ms.
Meenu
Aggarwal
I believe that god is always there. Expect His help and He will not fail you! If we had no faith in the ultimate God, we would lose all hope. By organ donation we can help save lives of those who have lost all hope of living. The donor and his family's greatness and large heartedness have helped revive our faith in god and mankind. It has encouraged me and my family to donate our organs to help save lives.
You may not be able to change the whole world, but even if you can change your part of the world, life is worth living. Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting ......... Our lives live on forever in the lives that we touch and the best and the most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen nor touched but are felt in the heart. |
Mrs.
Meenu Aggarwal, an advocate by profession,
underwent a kidney transplant in September 2002 at
AIIMS. She is living a normal life now.

ORBO is serving the mankind by arranging the
living organs to the patients of Organ Failure and
helping such patients to live future in much
better way.
Hour's
need is to educate the masses to donate one's
