Boy's Donated Organs Lead To Cancer
This is a terrible story that starts with a tragedy and ends in an equally sad way. It centres around a boy name Alex Koehne, a teen who was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis and apparently died from the disease in March of last year.
His parents made the decision to donate his organs to others as a way of paying tribute to their lost son. It was a generous and agonizing moment, but they knew they were doing the right thing. "I immediately said, 'Let's do it'," Jim Koehne recalls. "We both thought it was a great idea. This is who Alex was." The operations were performed in New York City and grateful donors accepted Alex's vital organs, giving them the chance at a life he would forever be denied. It should have had a happy ending. It didn't. http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_21472.aspx

Truly a shame that what a family thought would be the gift of life or a chance at life to other people suffering turned in to a nightmare. I can't even imagine how they must feel, likely blaming themselves even though they had no idea about the cancer.

It's so horrible
 The family must feel so so horrible... They thought they were doing something amazing... But actually they were giving people their death sentances! So sad
