Life is a dynamic process. It starts from birth and ends into death. In between, comes different stages of life with different diseases and problems. The medical advancement and technology has begun to save lives and the most miraculous achievement of modern medicine is organ transplantation which has the power to save the lives of the client1. For all those who are born, there is one event which is certain and inevitable and that is death. Yet we all live as we are immortal when faced with death in the family or in the cause of professional work we are completely unprepared and rudely shocked out of our illusions2.Keywords
Organ Donation, Transplantation, Awareness, Donor.
