The patient's creatinine levels were extremely high and doctors advised that she go for preemptive kidney transplantation; after all else failed, her 59-year-old mother-in-law came to the rescue and offered to donate a kidney
Debunking the warring saas-bahu myth, a 59-year-old woman saved her daughter-in-law’s life by donating her kidney. Both women are now convalescing after having been discharged from the hospital following the successful transplant. Vile Parle housewife Vaishali Shah (35) visited her family doctor back in March 2013 to get treated for a bout of fever. Since she was experiencing some swelling in her body, the physician advised the family to consult a nephrologist, to rule out renal problems.

Surekha Shah (right) said she was thankful to God that she was a match and could give her daughter-in-law Vaishali a new lease of life
