The last post was accidentally deleted and i tried to rewrite what i remembered.....

 A year ago Fariba Sahraei From BBC Persian Broadcasting and a class mate from our Journalism school interviewed me on Daniel's body part donation . This interview was aired in Iran and many heard this . That interview also helped create a culture of body parts donation after death among Iranian society.
It was after that when an Iranian actress Ms. Asal Badiei who lost her life due to sickness and she decided to donate her body parts to save other people's life .

This poem by Federico Garcia Lorca " Lament for Ignacio Sanchez Mejias" is closer to Daniel's tragic death at 5:00pm on Saturday May 7 ,2011

1. Cogida and Death:  "At five in the afternoon"   
                       At five in the afternoon.
                       It was exactly five in the afternoon.
                       A boy brought the white sheet
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       A frail of lime ready prepared
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       The rest was death, and death alone
                       at five in the afternoon.
                 
                       The wind carried away the cottonwool
                       at five in the afternoon.
                      And the oxide scattered crystal and nickel
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       Now the dove and the leopard wrestle
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       And a thigh with a desolate horn
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       The brass-string struck up
                        at five in the afternoon.
                       Arsenic bells and smoke
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       Groups of silence in the corners
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       And the bull alone with a high heart!
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       When the sweat of snow was coming
                       at five in the afternoon.
                        when the bull ring was covered  in iodine
                        at five in the afternoon.
                       death laid eggs in the wound
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       At five in the afternoon.
                       Exactly at five o'clock in the afternoon.     
  
                       A coffin on wheels is his bed
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       Bones and flutes resound in his ears
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       Now the bull was bellowing through his forehead
                       at five in the afternoon .
                       The room was iridescent with agony
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       In the distance the gangrene now comes
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       Horn of the lily through green groins
                       at five in the afternoon.
                       The wounds were burning like suns
                       at five in the afternoon,
                       and the crowd was breaking the windows
                       at five in the afternoon.
                      At five in the afternoon.
                      Ah, that fatal five in the afternoon!
                      It was five by all the clocks!
                      It was five in the shade of the afternoon!
