Do you carry a Donor Card ? If not why not ?

Recommended Posts

Hiya Pattricia,

 

Why would you think your organs are no good just because you are not young, You're never too old to help someone

Sign up to the register at http://www.uktransplant.org.uk/. It's best to inform your family, next-of-kin, friends etc of your wishes as well. Not only will they be aware of your wishes, you'll probably hear a number of inspirational stories of people whose lives have been changed for the better. We nearly all know somebody who has been helped by the altruism of others.

I carry a donor card and my family know my wishes after I've died. It's in my Will too. I've been meaning to sign up on the Organ Donor Register for ages but never got round it. But reading this thread has prompted me to finally do it!

 

Maggi has posted a link to the register and there's also answers to FAQs: http://www.uktransplant.org.uk/ukt/how_to_become_a_donor/questions/questions.jsp

 

which might answer some of the questions that people have been posting.
