    =======================

    Dr. Asokan and his wife Dr.Pushpanjali are running a clinic in
    Thirukazhukundram, Kanchi Dt. Their son HITENDRAN (aged 16) was
    studying XI std in a Private School. He has a brother – Laxman.

    Saturday evening he met with an accident in his mobike and from
    Chingleput Hospital he was moved to Appollo Teynampet (Chennai –
    South)… Inspite of proper attention, HIS BRAIN BECAME DEAD .. yet
    some of his organs were functioning.

    Realising the END, his Doctor parents, requested Appollo to make use
    of his functioning-organs..

    In LIFELINE HOSPITAL – MUGAPPAIR (Chennai-West / outskirt ) a 9 year
    old girl was needing a HEART ! By road, it normally takes about 45 –
    60 mts to cover this distance from Teynampet… and if the HEART
    does not reach in less than 30 minutes, the whole attempt would be
    futile…

    The HEART OF HITENDRAN was surgically taken out, preserved in ice-
    box (seeing this his parents are crying with folded Hands !) and an
    Ambulance – in readiness started towards Lifeline.. with a Pilot Car
    of Asst.Commissioner Mr. Manoharan !

    Chennai Police Commissioner – Mr. Sekar – has ordered stoppage of
    vehicular movement in the route and

    The Ambulance reached LIFELINE in 10 minutes time and Dr. Cherian
    handled the surgeory successfully and the 9 year old girl is
    alive .. bearing the heart of OUR BELOVED HITENDRAN !

    HITENDRA’s EYEs are donated to Shankar Netralaya to a needy one ..

    His lungs, lever and whatever functioning were used in Appollo
    Teynampet for needy patients.

    Their Parents observed ::

    Their son’s heart will be still beating .. thinking of its mother
    (and father )

    His eyes will be still seeing.. !

    HITENDRAN IS STILL ALIVE THROUGH OTHERS BODIES !!

    The Family is really THIYAGA SIGARAM !

    OUR SINCERE PRAYERS ..

    AND VERY BEST REGARDS TO HIS PARENTS WITH OUR FOLDED HANDS .. !

    And our best regards to the Team of Doctors, Medical support, Police
    and the Press – for motivating us towards more positive direction.

    sps

    SPS,

    Really my eyes watered while reading this. Only because of such people
    we are getting rains. A noble gesture. To think of such thing in the
    time of distress is really great. Many people, who want to do good
    also forget such things in the state of shock when someone dies in
    their family.

    In one persons death, 4 or 5 other people survived. Thats the backbone
    of our dharma – as krishna says in mahabartham, to protect one family,
    its ok to sacrifice one member, to protect one village its ok to
    sacrifice one family and to protect a country, its ok to sacrifice one
    village.

    There are many unsung heros out there, who sacrifice a lot for the
    sake of others. Recently Inspector Sharma of Delhi who lost his life
    fighting terrorist. The soldiers in border…
    The group of scientist working for the chandrayan project – it would
    be once in many days when they visit their family. We have heroes
    around us, but seldom fail to recognize them.

    Thanks for bringing this family of heros to light.

    Regards,
    Satish

    No words can describe this situation. May God Bless them and give
    strength to go through this situation.

    Hats of to all those who involved in this and thanks to SPS to
    bringing this noble gesture.

    Dear All
    Its a moving story and has an impact…
    There a few glitches in the story the heart can be transported within hours if prepared well. Myocardial protection its called….

    It was great the ACP and Commissioner stopped vehicles to let the heart pass but how many more died waiting for this convoy pass???

    Do we need ACPs for a medical emergency?

    I heard when ponmudi had a MI they closed the entire GST road to get him from Vilupuram to Ramachandra….. interesting isnt it!!

    We have to learn to respect bluelights in INDIA, our country….the only place where I have seen people ignore bluelights in the west is newyork….

    I lost my father as it took 45 minutes for my sister to travel .75 kms and the ambulances refused to come citing the rush hour of inner ring road as a reason!! A fit man with a sudden respiratory arrest died of brain death because of lack of medical transport in our Metro!!

    Its an Eyeopener and the name Cherian still carries the same charm the man pioneered anything and everything in cardiac surgery in indian and did it first….

    Dear Dr Sri, do you know Dr Cherian? He was a close friend of my
    grandfather (none of us know him either but my grandfather did and
    they parted ways before we were born).

    Dear Doctor Sridhar,

    Very nice observations..

    As you are aware, in Chennai, only while VIPs convoy is moving,
    vehicular movement used to be stopped…

    In this case it is done for a common man !

    I agree with you that while attending one emergency, other might have
    been affected … But now a days Traffic sargents are having hand-
    phone and such emergencies can also be attended to.

    Attitude of Police personnel is also motivated to be people-friendly
    of late – by those in Power.

    Their team undergoes Yoga / Stress management courses etc.,
    Versatile and Scholarly persons give lectures in their Academy…
    Experienced respected officers (like ADGP Vijaykumar) are sharing
    their experience with the lower ranks and involving them not only in
    tougher operations, but also in handling emergencies..

    Prison, Training, Administration Heads and others are doing their
    best to support Law and Order and in reducing crime rates in TN. In
    comparison with population and growth rate, the crime graphs are on
    the decline… any how their web-sie may talk more of this !

    Though political interference cannot be totally ruled out in present
    day system world-around, the assistance of Police in handling fire
    hazard in T Nagar recently and the subject we are discussing, are
    pointers of better efficiency and versatality of the Police in
    Tamilnadu in the recent past.

    Today’s print-media has reported the subject in detail with
    photographs too.

    with best regards,

    sps

    Good pointer Sri and a good response SPS.

    I take it this way. When this news is read by all in the city, atleast
    a few will realize that only if the ambulance can reach in time, the
    life can be saved. Next time they see a blue light, they might
    remember this and try to make way for the ambulance. If even 1 in 1000
    does this, I would say, its a great success towards betterment. Hope
    things will change.

    The only thing I hate in India is this discipline (especially road
    sense). It gives me high BP whenever I drive. Initially I used to
    fight with everyone on the wrong side, but later gave up, thinking its
    bad for only my health and no use. So I just listen to Radio mirchi
    and enjoy my waiting time :) what else can one do?

    Regards,
    Satish

    Yes Shanthi,

    During the time of crisis we seldom think in those lines even if we
    wanted to do it. First is awareness and second is the situation that
    makes many to forget that they can donate the eyes even after death. I
    experienced this myself. Two years back when my grandfather died, I
    got a call from my father and the first thing I said is,let me go to
    beasant nagar and book a slot for the next day before coming home. By
    the time I did that and came home it was evening and as soon as I went
    to see my Grandfathers body, the first question I asked was, exactly
    how many hours have passed. i was told 3 hours, and the next question
    i asked was, can we donate the eyes, we have only 3 more hours? All my
    athais, my grandmother, my parents no one thought about it and my
    grandmother was so happy that she asked me, can we really do it. In
    next 1.5 hours the doctors came and took the eyes and till date my
    grandmother feels happy about it and tells that if not for you we
    could have never done this. vaazhkayila naan panna oru urupadiyana
    kariyam…till date

    Regards,
    Satish
