Vinubhai’s sons Bhavesh and Pradeep said that our father is braindead and his death is certain. So it’s better to donate his precious organs and save the lives of kidney & liver failure patients rather than burning his organs to ashes.

On getting a consent from the family members, Shri Nilesh Mandlewala contacted the Transplant Coordinator Shri Priyaben Shah and Dr. Pranjal Modi at Institute of Kidney Diseases & Research Centre (IKDRC), Ahmedabad to come & collect the kidney & liver donation.

Dr. Jamal Rizvi and his team from IKDRC, Ahmedabad came to procure the donation of kidney and liver, whereas the donation of eyes was procured by Dr. Praful Shiroya of Lokdrashti Eye Bank.

Both the kidneys procured have been kept for the research. And the liver has been transplanted to Shri Rajaram Omkaar Patel (Age 44) living in Vadodara.

This liver transplant was carried out by Dr. Pranjal Modi at IKDRC, Ahmedabad.

During the whole process of organ donation, Vinubhai’s sons Pradeep and Bhavesh, his brother Shri Chetanbhai Polera, relative Shri Nanubhai Baddha and other family members, Neurosurgeon Dr. Hashmukh Sojitra, Neurophysician Dr. Bhadresh Mangukiya , Chief Medical Officer & Administrators of Aayush ICU & Multi specialty hospital, Dr. Ramesh Patel, President of Donate Life Shri Nilesh Mandlewala immensely co-operated toward making this transplant a success.
