Oaxacan nurse donates her organs and saves lives In an act of generosity, Rosaura García Moreno, a 20-year-old woman from Tuxtepec, Oaxaca, became a hero by donating her organs after being diagnosed with brain death.
After suffering a car accident that caused multiple fatal injuries, doctors notified her parents, who, in a gesture of solidarity, authorized the donation of her organs.
The High Specialty Medical Unit (UMAE) of the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) at the Specialty Hospital No. 14 of the Adolfo Ruiz Cortines National Medical Center in Veracruz performed the surgical removal.
