Description

This is part two of a story we started last year about a remarkable woman named Carol Orzel. Carol was 59 years old when she died from a very rare bone disease. Her last wish was for her body to be donated to the Mütter Museum -- so scientists could study her skeleton and learn more about the disease that killed her. KYW reporter Mark Abrams (@MAbramsKYW1060) is back on the podcast today to tell us how Carol's wish was fulfilled.

You can hear the first part of the story wherever you get your podcasts (it's episode #37), or at kywnewsradio.com. Read more about Carol Orzel on kywnewsradio.com.
