>> The solution is simple.

Those who refuse to become an organ donor will be ineligible to receive a donated organ. <<

Not a simple solution, but a simple-minded one, to be sure.

I believe I am entitled to receive a donated organ, but I have ordered that no tissue from my body ever be donated to any living person. The same for my eldest son.

Why? We have both had hepatitis. Both of us have been healthy for years, but our organs would infect any poor soul who received them. Should we die because we are ineligible to donate? In this world there are few truly simple answers.

Good on.

I, however don't give a good G** ***N what happens to my body after my SPIRIT leaves it.

I AM a organ donor!

I do agree however, I should be able to receive organs from someone who is undeniably healthy but, brain dead.

It doesn't take much time or research these days to discover diseases by simple blood work.

Please forgive my grammatical errors. I was educated in publik skuul.!?
