It's difficult to say goodbye to a loved one when they pass on, but sometimes their departure is made a little easier with the knowledge that even in death, they can continue to help people.
For one Phoenix man, that meant donating the body of his late mother to science so that her brain might be studied to find out more about Alzheimer's disease.
Although she was gone, he could at least have the peace of mind knowing she would be helping to further research of this devastating disease. What he never expected, however, was that her donated body would be used for something else entirely.
