What does Organ Donation Mean to you?

What does Organ Donation mean to you?

Unless you have been directly effected by the need for a donor organ, its not on the top of the to do list.
You never imagine, the long wait, the nerves, the stress, that call.

Once upon a time, there was this beautiful little princess, she was on day 254 of a Berlin heart, waiting for her call.
At 4am THAT call came, but some people are not that lucky, and should it be down to luck?

Why?
Why should you, or your loved one have to face every day waiting for death on the list?
Why should you have to wait?
Why cant there be an opt out service?
Why are there not enough to make a difference?

Why? Selfishness, perhaps, ignorance maybe. Lack of understanding, DEFINATLEY.

There is never a good time to discuss death and organ donation with young children, but what happens when a young child needs a donor organ?

When is it ok to loose a loved one? When is it ok to give a gift of life?

Last years statistics, they don't look too bad, but translate them into waiting lists, and funerals.

What cost do we have pay to get the Opt out system

Just going to leave you with this...


What would YOU do, if YOU were waiting for an organ?

Be A Hero, Save a life.
