Being an organ donor is one of the most thoughtful actions a person can take. Everyone should be one.

Think we did this once or twice before. Dumbfounded at the number of people here who are not donors. More dumbfounded by how proud some of the non-donors are of this fact. Strange business, that. Remember MOP proudly boasting about not being a donor, but that's not surprising to me based on his narcissism.

I think in order to receive an organ, your DL must have that box checked. Otherwise, see ya.

I'm hoping that they transplant my penis onto someone else after I die so it can get some strange.
Would you want the organs of a habitually drug user, smoker and alcoholic being placed into your body?

Not sure about that one, GM, a true narcissist thinks other people deserve the best organs. It will please me to give others the blessing of my organs after I'm dead.

You gotta be a special kind of stupid not to donate them.

Yes I am. Never gave it a lot of thought until my wife was listed on the liver transplant list.

This. I have to believe that science would love to get their hands on some of mine. My will says to take everything that can be reused and help someone else, take the stuff I've ruined if any of it can be useful for study, and burn the rest.

Woke up this morning
Put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen and died
And oh what a feeling!
When my soul
Went thru the ceiling
And on up into heaven I did ride
When I got there they did say
John, it happened this a way
You slipped upon the floor
And hit your head
And all the angels say
Just before you passed away
These were the very last words
That you said:
[Chorus:]
Please don't bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I'd druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both my ears
If they don't mind the size
Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to Rose
[Chorus]
Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
Give my knees to the needy
Don't pull that stuff on me
Hand me down my walking cane
It's a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ### goodbye
[Chorus]
I've signed up.

My DL says "ORGAN DONOR" in big green letters, so yes I am..
though I'm considering having the wiener bronzed and repurposed as a hat rack

Donated my kidney to my father. Awesome experience and now he always tries to buy me dinner when we go out.

Yes, even registered to donate my eyes and organ tissue. They can have it all when I'm done with them.

Organ Donor here.
Long story short....I donated half of my liver to my father 14 years ago. It was a living donor program and fairly new procedure. They took about 1/3 of my health liver and transplanted it into my father. Both pieces grew back to full size. I had a full liver again in about 4 weeks. I think it was about 2 months for my father's to grow back to full size. I was in the hospital for 10 days, while he was there for 2 months.
If you have opportunity to do so, and your organs are healthy, I don't see why you wouldn't donate them. For living donors you have to meet specific health requirements. I had to go through about 4 months of testing before I was confirmed a healthy match and surgery could be scheduled.

My theory is that non Organ donors are also Trump supporters.

My father got 10 more years thanks to a liver transplant. In the mid-70s he had a blood transfusion after bypass surgery. Sadly, the hospital had purchased the blood from an Arkansas prison and it was infected with Hep C. By 2000, he needed a liver.
I am and always will be an organ donor.

I not only have the card but I have "organ donor" on my medical bracelet as well. Why the hell wouldn't you want to help someone with the best gift you can give someone, the gift of life?

On the flip side of that coin, does this mean that you would not accept a foreign organ into your body?

Why aren't people organ donors again? Is this some religious thing?
Chadstroma
Footballguy
Assuming there are no medical reasons as to why not.... are there any legitimate reasons to not be a donor?
General Malaise
Footballguy
I think there's some religious objections of people who think they need all their kibbles and bits to enjoy heaven. Other than that, no, there's no legitimate reason.
