Richardson organs donated for transplant

Natasha Richardson's organs have been donated to patients needing vital transplants.

Husband Liam Neeson and mother Vanessa Redgrave reportedly told doctors that the actress would have wished to save other lives.

Richardson passed away last week after suffering fatal head injuries in a skiing accident in Canada.

Surgeons from New York's Lenox Hill Hospital are said to have removed organs needed to help save the lives of patients needing urgent transplants.

"Some patient is going to wake up in the recovery room and start reciting Shakespeare," a source told The Sun.
