THE mother of tragic Derry woman Lisa Orsi says latest tests in Singapore have found no brain activity and they hope to be able to donate her organs this Friday and return to Derry next week.
Lisa has been on life-support since a freak incident in Indonesia last month when she took an adverse reaction to a trek, which cut off air to her brain.
The gifted 22-year-old Derry woman collapsed at her hotel.
Her condition has devastated her family in Derry and Donegal and her wide circle of friends both here and in Singapore.
Her mother Sharon told MLA Pat Ramsey this evening that the wait for hospital tests has added to the family’s heartache.
“The plan so far is that the MRI scan and EEG showed no brain activity but they still need to do another few tests just so they have tried everything,” said Sharon.
“Lisa could be donating her organs on Friday and coming off the machine and we are aiming home Monday but we need to get over these tests first.”
She told Pat: “Thank you being there for us when we needed it. We knew you were always on the other side of the phone.
“Let us all hope and pray that there are no further delays as it is causing the family additional distress and trauma.”
