Take what they want as long as the rest of me goes in the right bin.

Reincarnation is just another repeat
When I'm dead and gone, you can slice me, dice me, chop me, cut me, grind me, beat me, knead me, or whatever you need to do to take my organs, you can have them, I will have no use for them when I'm gone.
If i have anything worth having when i go, then they are welcome to it.
I'd rather someone else benefit from them, than go up in flames.

Speaking as someone who will probably need a donor in the near or distant future I am all for it, If I die before I get one then they can use any of my bits to save a life.
We gave permission for Joe's organs to be used and got two lovely thank you letters back as well Shezz for donating his Kidneys, we also donated His eyes and I can't recal what else they used, as his wife delt with it.
My husband was against donation untill it hit home that I will possibly need one at some point, now he is all for it.
Well, that likely makes me silly then.
I have carried a donor card since I was 15, and registered when that was brought it.
I find this 'assumed consent' totally out of order though. The decision to donate organs should lie totally within the informed choice of the owner of those organs. Because someone has not gone out of their way to say 'No', it should not be assumed they have said 'Yes'.
If it is brought in I would seriously consider tearing up my card and de-registering.
I note that nobody has addressed the last line of my opening post: What happens to those not in a position to make an informed choice? Is it to be assumed that because they are unable to say 'No' we have a right to harvest their organs when they die?
