I was born with my organs and if I want to rot with them that is my choice.
It’s nice to see you don’t think of only your self. You missed the point the more people domate HOUSE CALLS would not have happened.
Did you know just your liver could save four people?,the list is long of how many lives can be saved by just one dead person.

“It’s nice to see you don’t think of only your self”.

Actually, I prefer to think about individual liberty than some self imposed, holier than thou ideal that donating organs is the only way to help people. I’m all for allowing people to donate anything they want but this “test” is beyond the scope. Donating your body to science can help medical students (have you signed up for that?) and donating your body to a criminal research lab can help law enforcement/criminologists (have you signed up for that?). Hopefully when you pass, you’re organs can be used to help someone... other than the person who is a celebrity drug addict or sports figure you can move their way to the top of the list. Or, possibly someone from a different country who has the money to “order” a specific organ. Helping someone should be a choice and not a situation where a family has to sign some form within 20 minutes so an organ can be yanked from their body.
