Yahoo! News – Woman Kills Herself So Blind Sons Can See
NEW DELHI (Reuters) – An Indian woman committed suicide so her two blind sons could receive her eyes and see, a newspaper reported Monday.
Doctors… say [her youngest son’s] condition cannot be helped with a cornea transplant and also suspect his elder brother does not have a cornea defect.
How sad. The mother kills herself so her blind boys can have cornea transplants. Meanwhile, the blind boys beg for money so they can buy mom a new pair of eyeglasses. OK, I made that last part up. But at least perhaps some other blind person might benefit from the woman’s tragedy.
The family is insisting [the woman’s] corneas can only be used for her sons and no one else.
Oh. Nevermind.
