I've been contemplating the idea for quite awhile now. I did check with our local hospital here regarding pledging my organs .
Apparently, I need to apply online and a card would be sent to me. I'd need to carry that card with me at all time.
My Mom always hoped I'd go to medical school.
PS: You'd still save a life atm ..
I had an agreement like that in California, but now I live in Arizona, so I need to re-do my body will. Thanks for the reminder!
organs cannot be lawfully sold nor can a hospital make any money in any other way directly from an organ. There are laws specifically designed to prevent such a thing from happening.
Before I'm done with it...we should probably talk a little first.
Then off to medical school - there is such a desperate shortage of cadavers that student surgeons are having to learn virtually instead of on dead bodies like in the good old days. So I'll be a bit of a treat for them.
Why would anyone want to be buried or cremated intact? We're just animated lumps of clay and when the animated bit stops, donate the clay to give someone the chance of a working kidney, corneas, whatever, even just surgical experience.
yes it is a business just like any other and full of greed.
you can specify who get what dear, did you know this???
