Raipur. The 9th organ donation has taken place in Chhattisgarh. The Gosai family has saved the lives of 5 people by donating the organs of 54-year-old Munni Gosai after she was declared brain dead at Ramakrishna Hospital today. Munni’s lungs were donated to a 45-year-old woman from Pune by creating a green corridor and she was given a new life. Munni Gosai’s children say that their mother was born in Rajnandgaon and she was a very kind-hearted person. She was enthusiastic about donating her organs from the very beginning. She and her family have also participated in noble deeds like blood donation many times. Munni’s entire family is a resident of Gandai.
When Munni Gosai suddenly fell ill, she was admitted to Gandai, but due to the lack of ventilator facility there, she was admitted to Raipur’s Ramakrishna Hospital on the morning of 10th. On 11th August, Ramakrishna Hospital declared her brain dead, after which the process of organ donation was started with the consent of the family, in which one kidney was donated to AIIMS Raipur and one kidney to Ramakrishna. Ramakrishna also got her liver. The eyes were handed over to Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Smriti Hospital. This lady from Chhattisgarh has donated her lungs to a 45-year-old woman from Pune and has given her a new life.
The Regional Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization had issued an alert for lungs in Chhattisgarh yesterday. After this, a 45-year-old woman from Dr. DY Hospital Pimpri Pune was selected for transplantation. The team of Dr. DY Hospital Pimpri Pune reached on time in the morning by air ambulance and delivered the lungs from the patient’s body to the needy on time. This time again, with the help of police, a green corridor was created for the immediate movement of organs from Ramakrishna Hospital to the airport and Chhattisgarh Mahtari’s lungs were delivered to Pune on time and safely.
