Huh? What do you mean?

Donating organs is not the same thing as donating cadaver body.

If you donate just your organs, that is all they take, immediately upon death. They use the organs to save other lives, or improve the quality of life. Then the body is released quickly to the family for burial.

If you donate your entire body for research, then they keep your body, study it, then return the remains or ashes for burial. Sometimes they keep the body for a long time.

Those are two different kinds of donation programs. You can choose what you want.

True except for when u are in room waiting for them to take the organs out, do they charged dead one's family for keep the body a little while before send this one out to morgue? I don't like surprise, hidden costs.

I have a card stating that I'd like my organs to be donated once I'm deceased. My mum knows of what I want to be done.

I signed up soon after a famous cricketer died, and now because of this more people have signed up to donate their organs. Even the Prime Minister wanted to be a organ donator when he passed on and he signed up on this foundation beneath. Imagine someone having an organ that once inhabitated in Prime Minister's body!

I plan to donate any and all usable organs and tissue upon my death. My family knows of my plans and most of my family wishes the same for their own body.

My husband spent months in kidney failure on dialysis and thought he would need a transplant. Luckily, he improved, but it is so frightening while it's going on and every day you are so anxious for any good news. I would love to give some good news for a person who is ill.

My cousin was an organ donor before passed away. They take her corneas for someone. Only one was very good condition. Rest of her body was not that great condtion (long story).

My grandmother donated the brain of my grandpa's to the science lab for alcohol research. You know how the affect on the brain with 50+ years of chronic alcoholism. Rest of his body buried in the ground.
