Are you a organ donor? If not are you afraid?

No I am not an organ donor.  My history of cancer would make me an undesirable organ donor candidate.   :(

I'm not.  I am a cancer survivor.

I am an organ donor.  They can have any and all parts that can help someone else.  I won't need them at that stage anyway.  Anything left can be cremated and spread to the wind.....or whatever the family wishes to do with the ashes.

I personally don't want a plot in a cemetary.

I am not! When my husband tried to get on the list for a liver, they turned him down! He passed away a year later.

Yes. What would there be to be afraid of?
I mean, yeah, major surgery when alive is very scary. But unless approached by a family member or friend, I'm pretty sure any organs taken from my body will be postmortem.
I'd actually like to donate my body as well, but may not do that, as my family was completely weirded out at the suggestion.

I am because I'd rather be able to help others after I'm gone. I know several people who have benefited from receiving organ donations and are living happy fulfilled lives that wouldn't be otherwise possible .
