Quotes
“I’m just an average
woman with average concerns.”
She would like to
donate her eyes after death. She explained -
“People know me more
because of my eyes. So I decided to donate my eyes. But before that, I acquired
all the information about the campaign. Within what time after death one has to
donate eyes, and all other information. Only then I decided to donate my eyes.
It’s not that just for doing something, I donated my eyes. I found that useful
so I did it. I like to do social
service from my heart.
Whatever is possible I do, but I don’t speak of that. But I would like to give
more time to it in the near future.”
