    I'm an organ donor. But so far nobody has taken anything...although herself likes to...errmmmm..."borrow" the...ummmm...IYKWIM.

    Not sure if anything's gonna be in good enough repair to be useful to anyone anyway. Certainly not my liver - it's fucked. Kidney's might still be OK. Heart has a dicky valve. Eyes have had retinal detachment and still have glaucoma. Lungs have partially collapsed once...jeez it's a wonder I stay alive...

    Uhh... please tell me you're kidding? Ethical bodies, fellow doctors, and the government would have a screaming shit at them if anyone tried that kind of shit! Absolutely got to be scaremongering.

    Also, LOL.

    One of you fuckers better donate me a liver in about 10 years time.

    That's my strategy anyway. Hopefully they can transplant brain cells by then too.

    My brother, who is a doctor, advised me not to be an organ doner, as it can be the deciding factor in switching the "machine" off.

    Wonder if it matters whether the doctors an asian or european doc? In some countries, your worth more dead than alive. Especially if the "cuzzie" is in the spare body parts trade.

    My brother, who is an undertaker, often tells me stories about the bits and pieces the doctors stuff body cavities with after they have ripped out the innards so that the rellies don't know.

    He found a possum once.

    Still breathing.
