Organ donation

[deevee45]

Delurking to post a note urging everyone to consider designating themselves as organ donors--you can indicate it on your license.  A good friend died today while waiting for a lung transplant.  He had been so sick for so long... he was at the top of the list in the Pennsylvania-NJ-Delaware region, yet no lung became available in time for him.

Thank you...I reiterated to my family that if anything ever happens to me, I want to make sure that my organs are donated.

I'm so sorry to hear that about your friend.

Thanks. Have to keep remembering to change my default pic. His family waited so long for lungs to become available.
