I think it is organ donation week. This appears to be a new website. As the old bumper sticker used to say, Don't take your organs to heaven, heaven knows we need them here.
I just don't get why anyone would want to take their organs, whether they go up or join me down below. Even more puzzling are those who against the wishes of a departed loved one and stop the organ donation.
Why not an opt out system for organ donation? Too sensible.
Speaking of, our dyke friend who had a heart transplant was interviewed on the radio this week. She acquitted herself well. If you would like to hear it and I know you via my blog, send me an email for a link to the podcast. ripppon at yahoo com
Have always been an organ donor from the moment I got my P plates. If there's any of my bits and pieces that someone living could use, I'm happy to share.
ReplyDeleteSadly, my organs might now be more of a disadvantage - but I'm donating them anyway. What I don't get is why my family get to veto what's a public choice on my part?!
ReplyDeleteMe too Kath. I just don't get the reluctance.
ReplyDeleteRed, I think it is state law, so it might be different for you. Like you, I doubt mine will be up for helping anyone. My fingernails are still quite nice though. Of course I work on them a bit.
The only thing that annoys me about the organ donation website is you register online, then they send you a form to fill in and sign and send back. I never get around to sending it back, well because I'm lazy. Surely my online stuff is good enough. Meh.
ReplyDeleteThere's no reason you won't go to Heaven.
ReplyDeleteThat is absurd Fen. I did it a good while ago so I can't recall now. The important thing is that your intentions are known to your family and friends.
ReplyDeleteStop being silly, I can think of a few reason why I might go down under to the hot place.
whats the site you mentioned
ReplyDeleteI'll email it to you MC. I am a bit weary tonight.
