One donor can save up to 8 lives. Are you for or against donating your organs? If not, please explain.

I have arranged to donate my organs.

I wish to do, but not sure if my mom will allow me to do.

Mine was arranged to donate too. Its something that should be standard practice in our society.

Our culture is different. Eventhough i'm very well independent, since im single, i dedicate my life for my parent.
She is who pregnant of me, deliver me to this world, and take care of me till i'm independent, so she has right to be my my consideration of my decision of life.

What if you had children? Would you give your heart to your mom if she needed it?

It is standard practise here in the UK. You have to opt out, rather than make arrangements to donate.

I think it might still be standard practice to consult with next of kin, however. I don't think they whip your vitals out on the sly.

My dad received a cadaver kidney transplant over 7 years ago. Kidney failure was killing him and caring for his high needs was killing my mum.

She was too old and too small to carry on with things the way they were and my dad was having life saving surgery every couple of months. He was quite literally falling apart and at one point had mesh implanted to hold his insides together.

So far, that's about 15 years of life free from surgery and suffering from one kidney.

Each of us could potentially provide that 8 times over. That's like 120 years of life, or quality of life from the bits we don't need anymore.

Heavensmile is an adult, Mercedes.

She's made an adult decision to consider her mother's needs and wishes.

I think it is a personal decision not a societal one. 

Personally I am against it

1- Spiritually: Desecration of the body etc.
2- Financial: I am not helping medical corporations profit off my dead body (or my blood) by charging the living for my body parts, as they wait on a list of first come, first serve. (unless they are rich, and get bumped up)
3- Morally: Some studies have shown that it interferes with the Hippocratic Oath - people who are not organ donors receive quicker and more intensive medical
treatment to keep them alive (profits again)

Not negotiable professor

How much does a kidney cost in India?
No one's going to make much cash on an eyeball. Now, black-market organ dealers don't do a great job of filing taxes, but here are some prices based on rumored deals and reports from the World Health Organization. In India, a kidney fetches around $20,000. In China, buyers will pay $40,000 or more.

But no worries Bro, I got booted (as predicted) for agreeing with you and (naturally) the narcissist label was applied yet again ... y'd think they'd find a new and novel insult to add a bit of flavour eh?

The use of CnP by dumb people to sound smart is easy to detect !

I didn't find it at all difficult to understand, but either way, Heavensmile is entitled as an adult to make her own decision about organ donation without judgement.

Mind your own business and don't even try twisting my words to suit your own judgement

She can speak up for herself or not reply to me so run along and make yourself useful elsewhere!~
