Sharon Stone: “My grandson, who saved the lives of three people”

Sharon Stone shared her grief over the death of her grandson River on Instagram on August 30th, a year not yet completed. The child, son of his brother Patrick, had not survived amulti-organ failure. And the diva, who had left Venice suddenly, in the days of the Venice Film Festival, anticipating the return to America precisely because of the worsening of the child’s health conditions, he had wanted to remember it with a tender video.

Now Stone has found the strength to talk about her grandson again.

Interviewed by People, said the parents have donated his organs, and that this way River saved the lives of three people“Nothing helped our family endure River’s tragic death like donating her organs. The fact that he saved the lives of three people, two children and a 45-year-old man, gave us some peace“. The same emotions transpire from the words of father Patrick and mother Tasha, who wrote on the Instagram page of the Center for Organ Recovery and Education: “He was our little prankster, our water baby, our little foodie, now River has become a hero too. By dying, our baby has made a far greater contribution to this world than most of us could ever hope to make. ‘

Three days before River died, Sharon Stone on Instagram asked her followers to pray with her so that her brother’s little son could come out safely from the hospital where he was rushed: “We need a miracle”, had written. The little one didn’t make it. But now he is “a hero”. And Aunt Sharon wanted to remind the world how important it is to donate one’s organs: “May it never happen, but a tragedy can happen in one’s life, in one’s family. For our family, this opportunity to be an organ donor was a lifesaver. Not everyone thinks the same on this issue. But he gave us some peace».
