The family of 29-year-old brain dead Jhaver Kakadbhai Kunwar of the tribal community took the decision of organ donation, which has shown a new direction to the society by spreading the fragrance of humanity by donating heart, lungs, liver, kidney and eyes to seven people suffering from organ failure.
Jhaverbhai Kakarbhai Kunwar (age: 29), a resident of Valsad’s Dund Falia Primary School, was working as a sweeper in Bayer Company in Vapi. The family consists of wife, one son and two daughters. Jhaverbhai had gone to a wedding ceremony in Khamdahad village of Dharampur taluka on May 12. He was returning home from a wedding ceremony at 1.30 pm. Then his bike ran out of petrol, so he left his bike on the side and was standing on the road, when an unknown car driver hit him, causing serious head injuries and he became unconscious.
