Louise Cosgrove’s corneas restored sight after her 1996 death; her sister urges donation ahead of World Sight Day.
Juliette Cosgrove is sharing her sister Louise’s story ahead of World Sight Day to promote cornea donation.
Louise, a 27-year-old intensive care nurse, died in a 1996 car crash while en route to training.
Though her organs couldn’t be used, her corneas were donated, restoring sight to others.
Juliette, now a chief nursing officer, says the donation brought comfort and honors Louise’s lifelong support for organ donation.
The NHS emphasizes that most people, regardless of age or conditions like cataracts, can donate corneas, and urges more to join the donor register to help those waiting for life-changing transplants.
