Chinese doctor, Jin Junhua, 36, has been
unconscious since he was hit by a drunk driver in
January 2016. On Monday, doctors declared him
brain dead.
Jin's wife, also a doctor, wanted to fulfill her
husband's wish – he wanted to donate his
organs after he died. So she has decided to
donate Jin's heart, kidneys and liver to other
patients.
His heart was transplanted on a 64-year-old
woman who suffered from serious heart disease.
Jin's story has made him a hero in Chinese social
media and many believe that what he did wasn't
just an act of benevolence but has also helped to
raise the public image of doctors.
According to CCTV, doctors in China have been
subject to violence in recent years with patients
often demanding quality service from doctors but
many complain of poor services, leading to
confrontations.
This has also led to a growing distrust toward
hospitals.
