Have you considered registering as a potential organ donor?
I know a lot of people don’t like to think about what will happen when they die, but anecdotal evidence would suggest that motorcyclists are more likely to become organ donors than other groups
If you don’t have any strong feelings against becoming a donor could I suggest that you sign up, it’s not just major organs that can be used, other tissue can be too. I’ve always been a donor card carrier and signed up to the register years ago, but it’s hit home recently and so I thought I’d use LB to bump it into peoples minds.
I can’t, unfortunately. I have genetic blood disorder and have been told that I can’t give blood or organs, due to a mix of the problem and the medication.
Takes an hour to do, and the smug grin lasts for the rest of the day. Plus it only takes two pints to get you royally smashed afterwards…good conscience and cheap night out. DOUBLE BONUS!
This is a subject very close to my heart…My father had a kidney transplant when he was 38, after waiting 2 years on the waiting list, without this he would of died, and i also have the same disease and i ‘might’ one day need a donor too, So yes, please sign up to become an organ donor, its a gift of ‘life’ to someone else.
