Topic Are you an organ donor? Better think twice...
Posted 25 Apr 2011 01:51
Firstly I have not put myself down for the donor scheme as I'm obese, diabetic, get gout and who knows what else so I don't think my parts would be of any use to anyone.
Secondly I renewed my will and made enquiries with the solicitor re pulling the plug if I end up a vegetable and he said that it is not worth the paper it is written on. If I'm sent to say a Catholic hospital there is no way they would pull the plug on me no matter what my wishes were. It depends on the doctor's beliefs more than anything else so I don't think the DNR tat will make much difference.
addressing the first: depending on what you are donating it is still valuable. the whole body donation that i am refering to does not matter what size/shape you are in. additionally skin donations are among the various organ donations that are not affected by DM.(yes skin is an organ, in fact it is the largest organ in the body) by not becomeing a donar you no longer make it an option. If you dont wish to donate so be it, that is your perrogative. However, just say 'i choose not to be a donor' not 'i cant'.
second issue. this can be true of a DNR. In the state of FL it must be among other things printed on the correct shade of yellow paper to count! However, advance directives include so much more then merely a DNR. (a dnr is an advanced directive, but not all advanced directives are dnr's) they can include durable power of attorney and living wills. to many times i have seen victims of accidents whose children instead of spending the time coming together as a family to help each other through a tough time, fight over what should be done with the family member. not all desicions to regarding your health are as black and white as merely pulling a plug! what kind of measures do you want done when you are no longer able to make those desicions for yourself? do you want to be intubated and breath only with the assistance of a vent? what about a gtube if you are refusing to eat? a supra pubic cath inserted for your urine. being a vegatable is among the least of my fears. i know my family would agree then over what i want(although i have seen enough families fight to make me very sad!) but if i were suffering from an unimaginable existance where i am stuck inside a body that is being preserved merely because we can, i hope someone is kind enough not to put me through more pain and trauma.

My family has donated the entire body (cadaver). my grandpa was a Dr, and this has been our way of giving back. I fully intend to do the same. the college we have dealt with has made it very nice. they pay for the cremation when they are done and we have had burial services for just the family members when we buried the ashes, more of a celebration of their lives because it is about 6 months later. we had memorial service for friends ect immediately after. I like to think that although the student wo uses my body may not be the one who cures cancer, if he/she learns enough from my body to help someone else then i have done something right to balance the many wrongs i have done.
that being said let me also say PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE fill out a living will. we do not know what the future holds and this allows your wishes to be (legally) carried out in the unhappy event of an accident!
my next tattoo is a yellow DNR across my heart!

i love see the satisfied omg wow look on his face, usually he will get a drink and share with me and this is nice, but most of all that kiss is thanks.
one time had a guy bend over me as i sat on the floor between his knees and reciprocate with the most amazing fingering ever. mmmm, nipple pinching/sucking bitng while i climaxed on his fingers was lovely...then he passed me a towel.
