Organ Donation

[applecruncher]

I've been an organ donor for as long as I can remember. Have a card, but they now put an imprint on Drvlic/IDs, which makes things go more quickly and smoothly if the time comes.

I've benefited...corneal transplant in 2008.

The way I look at it, if I'm on the way out I see nothing wrong with giving my heart, kidney, liver, etc. so other people can continue to live.

 

[Keesha]

Yes. If any of my organs can save someone else’s life, I’m all for it .

Same here. I have itn on my driver's license. My cousin died from a rare form of cancer, when he passed he donated his entire body to medical science for cancer research

I wasn't able to donate my late husband's organs, as he technically died outside the hospital. But, they did take his corneas, bones and tendons for transplant and his skin for skin grafts for burn patients.

I'm an organ donor, too. They can have whatever they want.

I believe in recycling anything needed.

On my DL also.

 

[twinkles]

i am also an organ donor---if they find any thing they can use they can take it

 

[Rosemarie]

Apart from anything else...it means a little bit of you lives on.

 

[retiredtraveler]

Yup. Wife and I also have it on DL.

 

[Butterfly]

It's on my DL, too.

 

[C'est Moi]

It's on my DL, too.

Ditto. Not sure if everything will be worn out by that time, though.
