Donor Memorial

  • Mr. S. Ramalingam   - 89 Years

    On 17th June 2021, Ms. Ishwarya Thyagarajan received a call on the Helpline around 1 PM in the afternoon from Kodambakkam in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The caller, Mr. Rebelson, informed that his 89-year-old father had passed away 1 hour ago due to natural causes at home.

    The deceased, Mr. S Ramalingam, born in 1932, had registered for voluntary body donation at his village, and his son wanted to carry out his father's wishes. He had reached out to the 104 helpline of the state government and was asked to call MOHAN Foundation.

    Ishwarya tried reaching out to the three government medical college hospitals of the state to coordinate. While one hospital responded by saying that they have temporarily stopped accepting donations owing to the pandemic, the other two were unreachable. She then reached out to Dr. Mallikesan from the Anatomy department of Sri Ramachandra Hospital who offered to coordinate with the family.

    The family was requested to talk to Dr. Mallikesan and the donation formalities were successfully completed by 5 PM in the evening. Mr. Rebelson sent a heartfelt thank you message appreciating the efforts of the Foundation.

    MOHAN Foundation is thankful to the family for taking efforts to carry out the deceased's wishes.
