I have the box checked on my drivers license. However, I think I'm going to reconsider after this video. Seems like they may cut you up when alive with no anesthetic. That would be a very bad day.

I already been cut on with no anesthesia!

Absolutely, if my organs can help someone's quality of life, that's good.

My family has already received organs from donors in the past, I want to do the same.

Typically, if a family has never received a donated organ, they don't donate
and
families that HAVE benefitted from organ donation, donate.

No one has received any organs in my family. My brother and I were both donors. When my brother died almost 10 years ago at the age of 41 they used several of his organs. When it is time to actually let them take the organs from a deceased loved one it was harder to do than I thought it would be. It kind of feels like you are losing more of a person you have already lost. It is hard to describe. It bothered my mom more than it bothered my father and I, but dad and I both felt it. Even having experienced this I am still an organ donor. I hope it does not bother my family in that manner when I die.

With no brain function, there is no pain. I assumed all this this was common knowledge? I hope they use all mine.

I watched the video. I am and will be a donor. The horror stories will always be there. I just hope they don't ever do a brain transplant. Mine don't quite work right. Lol


Wish I had more time to trap....

How do you know this for sure? You believe there is no pain but unless you have been there, I doubt you can say that for certain. I guess you can believe the doctors if you want. I choose to believe they are far from 100% correct most if not all the time.

Thought about it, just don't care for the idea that the hospital is going to charge someone for my organs that I DONATED. Still on the fence though.

Yes.
I don't care what they do with an old bag of bones cause I won't be here.
Why not help someone who is still here?

Read the book "Stiff" they don't always go to help someone per say, unless specified your body and parts can be used for about anything.

When I was asked at the MVA if I want to be an organ donor I said, "only if I get to pick the church."

Hospitals charge for the blood I donated. If I could help someone through organ donation I would, but the discussion above makes me think twice.

I would like to know why some people would not want to be an organ donor? What do you plan on doing with them later anyway?
