I have TWO cousins who are nurses who tell me that doctors treat (high-mortality rate) cancer patients differently if they are donors - because some types of chemotherapy will make organs unusable.

I thought that cancer patients couldn’t be organ donors. Usually if they die from the cancer, it has spread to other organs (and throughout the system).
