Just in the last week I've read on the QB about someone in need of a transplant, and someone who died before getting one. I just wondered how many of us have taken the time to sign up to be donors?

I have. I personally don't care what they do with my carcass when I'm done with it - but if I can help another person in any way, I want to. It would be my last Act of Kindness.

If you haven't signed up, please think about it, and talk with your family members about it for themselves too.

I am an organ donor. I think all my children have signed up as well.

I have signed on the back of my liscense (spelling?) to donate anything as needed, my younger son is also the same as me . My older son wants to keep everything when he goes, I don't understand his thinking, but it is his final decision so I will respect that .

Hopefully I'll be so old when I go, that my organs will be as wrinkled as me....but if not, I'm a donor too.

I am an organ donor and if someone can use my eyes especially to see all of the beautiful things that I have seen then more power to them...just don't take them yet,please!!!
My kids are as well.

I used to be until I found out I have HepC so guess I'll be taking everything with me. :)

I'm a donor. My father gained an extra 12 years of life thanks to a wonderful heart donor. They can take anything and everything from me when I'm gone. It's my way of giving back.
