Click to play videoHyderabad: A family in Andhra Pradesh, mourning the loss of their 19-year-old member Ganpati in a road accident, has ensured his legacy donating his organs and transforming the lives of seven people.
Johnson, a six-year-old boy, was suffering from the dangerous blue baby syndrome but now a critical heart surgery has ensured he would live healthily.
His poor parents cannot stop praising the family of Ganapati whose heart was donated for the surgery.
"I am indebted to Ganapthi's family for life. My child is breathing because of him. May god bless them," says Jhonson's father Jnana Nandam.
It's not just Johnson but six other people, too, have received vital organs including the kidneys and liver donated from Ganapatis body.
Ganapati had met with an accident and was brought to hospital brain dead. Doctors who counselled the family including CNN-IBN's Real Hero Dr Raghuram say it wasn't an easy decision for Ganapati's family to donate his organs
"They have this fear that an organ-less body might be disfigured. Relatives back home may raise doubts on the missing organs so they have to be explained all this," Mohan Foundation Chairman Dr Raghuram says.
But Ganapati's elder brother Pradeep went ahead, believing that his brother will live on by this deed.
"I see my brother in the seven people who have received his organs," says Pradeep.
Ganapati's family is slowly limping back to normalcy unaware of the identities of any of the seven people who have benefited from his organs.
But they do find solace in the thought that Ganapati continues to live on.
