This woman in Henan, China is one of them. She was called Zhao and she had always hoped to donate her corneas after her death. Apart from telling her husband, Mr. Li, she even saved the wish in her phone, reported Oriental Daily.
She told the doctors her wish, and they advised her to apply some eye drops every day to keep her corneas healthy. So, every day without fail, she would use the eye drops even when she was in pain, especially during the last stages of her life.
On 4th September, Zhao passed away. Her husband then went to contact the hospital by telling them that his wife wanted to donate her corneas.
Two days later, the corneas were transplanted into 2 different people and as of now, they have recovered and are finally able to see.

Mr. Li even visited one of the people who got his late wife’s cornea because he wants to witness how his wife’s last wish is fulfilled. He said while crying,
“This is her final wish. She will definitely be very pleased.”
Mr. Li wishes that with this story, people will be more aware of how important organ donations are and how many lives can be saved with that donation.

That is a really sad story, and we hope that Zhao is resting in peace in a place where there is no more suffering now.
