I have signed up as an organ donor, and I have made it very plain to my family that if I am mostly dead and will never recover it is perfectly ok for the surgeons to take whatever organs they can use, while they are still usable.

For this very reason, I have NOT signed up as an organ donor. But I have made it very clear to my husband that I do want to be a donor. But I want HIM to make that decision. I do not want any doctors being too quick with the knife! I figure with modern technology he can be by my bedside within hours no matter where he is... I’ve read to many stories where bad things happen.

Follow the money. Organ transplants are $100,000+++, often paid by insurance. There is too much motivation to “help things out a little”.

Don’t believe me? How does an abortion doctor keep doing what he does??

Please don't bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I'd druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around

Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size

Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
