The organs of a 20-year-old university student from Iraklion, who had been on a life-support machine following a car crash, were sent to prospective transplant patients in four different cities.

After doctors at University Hospital, who struggled to keep the student alive for a week, informed her parents that there was no hope, the parents agreed to donate their daughter’s organs.

The student’s eyes went to University Hospital, her kidneys to Athens, her liver to Thessaloniki and her lungs to the German city of Hanover.

The doctors praised the student’s parents for having the “greatness of heart, despite their pain, to give life to three people and vision to a fourth.”
