Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: M1100 on June 11, 2010, 05:28:33 PM Me too, I've ben one for a long time.
Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: mstevens on June 11, 2010, 05:34:33 PM Everybody in my family is a potential donor. My daughter actually was one, but the only thing they could use was her corneas. I'm going to need a new set within the next few years, so that's a degree of balance in the universe.

Post by: ArguZ on June 11, 2010, 10:35:13 PM The thing that bothers me the most about it is, they're run by the motor vehicle bureau. I figure hey shit if you got to wait on a line that long for a kidney, make the beast with two backs it. Do without. It's the motor vehicle bureau in most states who sends you the little card your supposed to carry right next to your driver's license, in your wallet. A little card, your supposed to fill it out, and on it your supposed to list the organs your willing to give in case you die. Oh, are these people out of their make the beast with two backsing minds or something? Do you honestly believe that if a paramedic finds that card on you in an automobile accident, he going to try to save your life? Bullshit! He's looking for parts man. Absolutely. "Look Dan, here's that lower intestine we've looking for. Nevermind the oxygen, this man's a donor." Bullshit, they can have my rectum and my anus. That's all I'm giving, take them and get out of here. Put them in your bag and get the make the beast with two backs out of my life. That's all I'm giving. I don't want some guy poking around in me hoping I die, I want to live. I don't want to die. That's the whole secret of life...not dying! I figured that shit out alone in third grade.
R.I.P George Carlin Just to quote a great American.. But yeah, I got my card in my wallet too Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: kopfjäger on June 11, 2010, 10:53:24 PM The DMV has nothing to do with it. George is smarter than that. No wait, maybe not. :D
Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: cgv on June 11, 2010, 10:54:10 PM organ donor since i got my license. Blood, platelet, plasma donor on the reg.
Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: TJR178 on June 12, 2010, 03:10:10 AM I may need a kidney or two someday.
My grandma needed one and got it. Her brothers needed one each and got them. My mom needed one and got it (from Dad - living). So yes, I'm a donor. Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: Johnny OrganDonor on June 12, 2010, 03:59:11 AM Who else is one? It's the ultimate pay-it-forward. Not yet, but I came real close a couple of times. Someone'll get my parts eventually. Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: PhoenixS4R on June 12, 2010, 08:31:52 AM When I got my motorcycle license here in the bay area (couple months ago), I would have had to pay a 2 dollar (Or something like that) Fee to opt out of being a donor. I didn't have 2 dollars so now I'm an organ donor. [beer]
I have nothing worth taking tho. lol. Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: triangleforge on June 12, 2010, 09:16:09 AM I am; and here's a little public service announcement on the subject:

Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: RAT900 on June 12, 2010, 08:22:10 PM It is on my license...
so if I am "iffy" on a gurney and they have a waiting transplant candidate at the hospital they can toss a coin on my future :o I wish there was a stipulation that my organs can only go to a recipient who has also signed on to donate their organs I believe as it stands now certain religions have bans on "mutilation" of the deceased but it does not preclude their taking advantage of heathens and infidels etc who do not abide by their brand of mythologies If anyone has FHE/Knowledge on the current rules/qualifications of the Donor Game I would love to know them Personally I believe if you take advantage of the program as a recipient you should be deep-dermal tattooed as a harvest candidate/participant Title: Re: Organ Donors?

So, at that point who gives a make the beast with two backs. It's not like your gonna comeback, unless you wear a hockey mask. Then all bets are off. :D Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: r_ciao on June 12, 2010, 08:42:01 PM i've already donated a kidney, so yes, i am.

Then all bets are off. :D I believe that there are Brain dead and Heart dead variations....if the former I better lock the doors now... I just believe that if I opted in then anyone who receives a harvested organ from me should also be opted in automatically... dead or not I have no wish to perpetuate ignorance and superstition on this planet...I would want my organs to help mankind not further hinder it Title: Re: Organ Donors? Post by: RAT900 on June 12, 2010, 08:51:18 PM i've already donated a kidney, so yes, i am. [clap] [clap] [clap] Man that takes a whole different level of guts...(no pun intended) it is one thing to be gone and to have said sure why not....a whole different thing to go in eyes wide open and give up a part..you are about as admirable as a human can be for that act Title: Re: Organ Donors?
