My 33 year old son-in-law died of a heart attack a few years back and immediately my daughter was pressed to make a decision about donating his organs, she agreed.

Closed casket funeral because skin is an organ too and they “harvested” the skin off his face.

First, I am so sorry about your son in law!! I hope your daughter is doing ok.
Better than ok.

I want to say that I don’t disagree with organ donating! I just disagree with “too early” organ donating

...she agreed.

Your daughter s to be commended for making a selfless,and compassionate,decision under tragic,stressful,circumstances.

There can be no doubt that she was brought up right.

My husband wanted to donate his organs, but he died of a heart attack and it was too long a time from when he died to when he was produced dead at the hospital...I talked with the doctor in ER and he stated the only organs viable was the skin....I refused to have him skinned. Unless you die in a hospital and can be kept alive with machines your organs are useless... I will not be a donor..I am using up all my organs myself and almost 76 am doing a pretty good job of it...
