In 1997, the Pittsburgh Protocol declared that cardiac arrest lasting two to five minutes causes 'cardiac death' and that it is ethically acceptable to remove vital organs for transplantation if a person is in cardiac arrest. The evidence provided by Dr. Buckberg and others directly contradicts this.

And the culture of death will IGNORE this.

Of course a lot of smaller hospitals wouldn’t be able to provide timely access to a heart lung machine .

I seem to remember that there was an attempt to make organ donation mandatory in England. Am I wrong?

Much as I don’t particularly feel good about it, this is why I’m not an organ donor.

If I felt like I had any control over when my organs would be taken from me, I might consider it.

As The Aztec Journal of Heart Surgery said, “Who would want a heart from a dead person anyway? If the donor isn’t up, we don’t cut”.

“And the culture of death will ignore this”

No, they will celebrate this.

Fortunately I have no organs anyone would want.

Even if I did, I would want them to wait until full rigor had set in before making any move.

And then I’d want them to wait a few more hours.

Lawyers across America are salivating uncontrollably at this.

Imagine what will happen when a heart is “harvested” and the family finds out the ‘donor’ signature on the donor card was forged.

Bummer.

Moral: Don’t sign any donor cards.

I heard a program on EWTN talking about if you sign a Living Will, they will quite possibly fast-track you OUT in order to harvest your organs. Esp if they are needing a couple of eyeballs, for instance, and you are almost dead.

Not belittling the pro-life side of this at all, what about the stories of people who have been conscious during operations! Good Grief, Charlie Brown!
