A nurse bonds with late patient's family through the use of technology after she passes away due to the fatal beating of her new husband, according to Hattiesburg.
Sanaz Nezami, 27, was brain dead just after a few weeks of living in the United States due to her husband's fatal beating. Her family who lives in Iran couldn't travel to the United States but they were able to watch the young girl's last hours through the use of technology. A nurse at a U.S hospital kissed Sanaz's forehead and the relationship the family has established with her led to consent for an extraordinary donation. Nezami's heart, lungs and other life-saving organs were transplanted to seven people in the United States.
"We wanted God to perform a miracle and bring Sanaz back to life," her sister, Sara Nezami said. "But this is a miracle, Sanaz gave her life in order to give life." The nurse who took care of Sanaz said the whole experience was eye opening for hospital staff. "The family was willing to trust us to know she wasn't coming back," Kim Grutt said. Last August, Sanaz married Nima Nassiri in Turkey and lived with him temporarily in Los Angeles, where he was born and raised.
Nezami, a native of Tehran, had a bachelor's degree in engineering and a master's in French translation. She wanted to further pursue a doctorate degree in environmental engineering. On December seven, Sara asked her sister to proofread some English-to-Persian translation she was doing on the side. "I was shocked. Sanaz was a very precise girl, but she omitted some lines. I asked, are you okay? She told me there was a problem." The day after Sanaz was rushed to the hospital with severe head injuries.
"Her brain was swollen and so damaged, there was no longer any blood flow," said Gail Brandly, who supervises nurses at the hospital. After about 24 hours, the hospital reached her relatives in Iran. "It isn't something we've done in the past. It's not every day we're dealing with family members so far-flung," said Dave Edwards, spokesman for the hospital.
