An Oaxacan nurse saves lives by donating her organs. After being diagnosed with brain death, Rosaura García Moreno, a 20-year-old woman from Tuxtepec, Oaxaca, became a hero by donating her organs.
Doctors informed her parents after she was involved in a car accident that left her with multiple fatal injuries, and as a show of support, they agreed to donate her organs.
The surgical removal was carried out by the Mexican Social Security Institute’s (IMSS) High Specialty Medical Unit (UMAE) at the Adolfo Ruiz Cortines National Medical Center’s Specialty Hospital No. 14 in Veracruz.
Her kidneys and corneas helped patients in Veracruz, and her liver was moved to the Siglo XXI UMAE in Mexico City. Rosaura, a nursing student at the Tuxtepec campus of Universidad del Papaloapan, will be remembered as a white woman who, to the end, lived up to her calling to save lives. Up to eight lives can be saved and fifty more people’s lives can be improved by a single donor.
