Natasha Richardson: Was donor, says family friend
A top web site reported that, Natasha Richardson's family has donated the actress's organs to save other patients' lives.
Refering to a "family friend", but not naming, the celebrity Web site said Richardson's family had requested her organs be donated after she was taken off life support last week. The report did not say whether any patient had received them.
Publicist for Richardson's husband Liam Neeson, Alan Nierob, said, he had no information on the matter.
Natasha Richardson died March 18 of a head injury that caused bleeding on the brain after a fall during a beginners' ski lesson in Montreal two days before. She was buried at a private ceremony in upstate New York over the weekend.
