Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Mother commits suicide to gift eyes to blind sons Saturday, 19 March , 2005, 21:13 Chennai: A 37-year-old woman committed suicide to fulfill her wish of providing eyesight to her two blind sons. The woman, Tamilselvi, was dejected that her two sons were blind and were studying in a visually impaired school in the city. With her efforts to find eye donors for them proving futile, she decided to register with an eye bank here and take the extreme step to ensure that she could herself turn donor. She was found hanging at her residence in suburban Kodungaiyur in North Madras on Friday. Eye bank authorities, who were informed about her death, removed her eyes to fulfill her wish. The body was later sent for post-mortem by policemen. http://headlines.sify.com/news/fullstory.php?id=13697450&headline=Mum~commits~su\ icide~to~gift~eyes~to~sons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
