The news of the TOI brings a hope among the people who really needs the organ transplantation. It has given the great message under the title of “Life Can Begin After Death”. According to it, A big number of patients who have organ failure and need the organ of some other person to continue their life all over the India. The need of the organ transplantation can only be fulfilled by the process of organ donation after the brain death. But still the rate of organ donors in our country is very less just because of the myths and confusions in donating organs. Be the real hero of your family and your great country in your life by donating your precious organs to someone who need it very seriously.

The most of the organ donation in the country is performed annually between the relatives means the person donate the organs only to his relatives. Around 4000 kidney and 500 liver live donations are being carried out by relatives to their patients only annually in the various hospitals. They donate one kidney and ¾th of their liver (as it can regenerate to the normal size after six weeks). Around 20 heart and lungs are transplanted annually at the center in Chennai whereas the demand is high. 2 lakhs cornea transplantation is required per year whereas only 50000 are being donated. There is a little action by the Indian people instead of the high awareness about the topic because of their misunderstandings and lack of clarity.
