Ivaan Prabhu is now town's youngest cadaver organ donor in a decade. He stored six lives, including that of a four-year-old boy, who may just in any case undergo a liver transplant at Jupiter Hospital in Thane.
The circle of relatives consented to donate his heart, kidneys, liver and corneas. His kidneys were given to 2 patients at Lilavati and Global Hospitals. A inexperienced corridor used to be created from Bombay Hospital, Marine Lines, to the airport to airlift the center to Fortis Hospital, Chennai. His corneas were despatched to Eye Bank Coordination & Research Centre in Parel.
Doctors at Bombay Hospital, where the donation came about, stated that the kid's parents expressed the will to donate his organ quickly after they were informed of his brain loss of life. "Around 3pm on Friday, they were told that Ivaan was no more. Once his father, an IT engineer, came to terms with it, his next decision was to donate his organs," stated Rupal Karnik, a circle of relatives friend of the Prabhus. She stated the couple, who used to reside in Mulund previous, didn't need to be identified.
The circle of relatives had learnt concerning the tumour only a month ago. After consulting a number of physicians in Pune, they determined to peer mavens in Mumbai.

Ivaan's remains were taken to Pune for the ultimate rites.
