Are you an organ donor?

They can take what they can use and please cremate the rest. So many people on waiting lists that deserve a better. My Mum in laws a kidney transplant patient, be nice to return the favour.

I'm on the fence...

**Quartermile** · 23rd February 2007, 21:17

So assuming you fall off the fence and die what happens?

Get in quick and carve him up... He aint gonna know...

In all seriousness, they can bloody well take what they want.

I have instructed my wife, and all my immediate family that they are not to hinder the harvesting of any usable bits of me that can go toward saving a life.

Yes, I am. After I'm dead (it is possible to donate organs before death). 'Tis but common sense. Waste not, want not. And also, what goes round comes round.

If a heart had been available, it could have saved my mothers life.

Yeah I am, not so sure that anything will be salvagable, but if those who are in the know decide that there are salvagable bits - Well they're welcome to them.

People keep telling me that I am intelligent, so they might need my brain for those less fortunate !

Warning though
It has been well soaked in alcohol once or ten times hehe

**Quartermile** · 23rd February 2007, 22:33

Sorry about that.....

But also not what I meant

**pixc** · 23rd February 2007, 23:32

Yip, take it all. Even for science. Im all for recycling. I watched a show about recipiants receiveing also personality traits from the donor. Curious..very curious indeed.

Very important to do this with your relatives... they can stop the donation going ahead, despite you listing yourself as an organ donor on your license.

Have had that box checked since the beginning....
