Rodriguez "gave a heart, a liver, lungs, and two kidneys, to save the lives of 5 people," the family's statement said. "All the Doctors and Nurses of Long Beach Memorial Hospital on Mona's floor gave a Hero's Celebration to Mona by standing in the hallway as Mona was taken to the operation while her favorite song was played."
Rodriguez, the mother of a 5-month-old son, was shot while she was in a moving vehicle in a parking lot near Millikan High School in Long Beach.
Investigators say she was seen involved in a fight before the officer opened fire.

At a press conference Tuesday, Iran Rodriguez, the woman's oldest brother, recounted conversations he had with her surgeons and medical scans that he was shown.
