Saving lives after death (editorial)

The most commonly donated organ is the eye. The other organs often used in India are the heart and the liver. A beneficial fallout of my article "Spare a thought for the donor' in The-Hindu of April 15 has been the interest it aroused in cadaver organ donations. I have had a number of calls from people asking for information on the use of organs after death. This piece should be read in conjunction with the previous article.
