| O&A Board Regular Registered: Nov. 00  | I just read that Levar Burton (Jordie LaForge on Star Trek:TNG and star of Reading Rainbow) donated a kidney to his ailing mother. Got me thinking. Who would you be willing to donate a kidney to, or undergo the pain of bone marrow donation for, or something like that? Would you do it for just anybody or just someone special? Have you done it already?

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | I personally believe that not donating your Organs after you die is the most selfish thing a human being can do. You obviously dont need them, so why would you condemn another person to death because of your selfishness? As for sharing organs and the such, my brother donated alot of his blood to me after i was in a serious accident when i was younger. I feel bad, because i know that there is nothing i can ever do to pay him back. He saved my life, thats something i can never let myself forget.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Not as long as I'm still using them. But I think I will sign off for them to be donated after I die. Until then... They're mine mine mine, all mine. And you can't have 'em. Drink up and go Home! | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | They can do what they want after I'm dead. I don't care. Donating a kidney to a relative? Yes. Donating a kidney to a stranger. No. I've heard it can shorten your life by up to 10 years. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Feb. 01 | When I got my license years ago I registered as a organ donor. However, I have changed my mind since then. I am taking with me what I came here with. I don't want to be walking around in my next life without my right eye and left tit. I was bi when being bi wasn't kewl. This message was edited by njstrawberry on 7-8-01 @ 8:20 PM | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | "nobody wants to be an organ donor... it just seems like the right thing to do. organ donors are people with no faith at all. what if they find a way to bring you back from the dead? "now i ain't got no eyes. ain't this a bitch? back from the dead and i can't see shit. mama, i'm back! mama, where are my eyes? you gave 'em to a little boy in idaho? now i gotta go kill him to get my eyes back." -Chris Rock Sometimes, not often, but sometimes, I like the idea of a chick with a horse. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | I'm definitely with OAS on this. I would give up just about anything to one of my relatives that wasn't crucial for my own life. And even if it would cause my own death, I'd still probably give it up to save them. As for donating body parts to friends, I'd have to say no. I'd like to keep everything intact in case a family member might need something I have. And Sephiroth, having you alive is thanks enough for your brother. It's obvious how much he loves you.  | ||||

Ya know Tequila I am sure there might someday be a man who needs a new dick and seeing as you always seem to have an extra one up your ass you might be able to help him out. But seriously since I have been blind in my left eye since I was 18 months old, I will most defanitly with out a doubt donate me right eye to someone when I die. If I don't have much time left when i am about to die I would probably donate it then just so I could meet the person who recieved it.  Feel like I’m living at the bottom of a grave. I wish you’d hurry up and execute me So I can be on my miserable way I don’t live today. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I would totally donate my organs to my family, especially since I have a not so common blood type (B-) and im anemic, so I know a few of my family members are also, but as for donating to strangers or marking my organ donor box on my license I would never. Im worried they would start taking stuff out before I was even gone.  CIT (Cuties in Training): none, have room for 2 email me if you want to be a Cutie Yahman - Certified Cutie as of 6/19/01 | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01 | Seph, not be rude at all, and its a touching story,... wouldn't they have just been able to get blood elsewhere? Personally, I'm Jewish and you're supposed to be buried with all your organs, and I don't think religion is really a factor in the conversation as far as talking about "why everyone should fill out there donor card",... religion is the exception rule to everything in this country. In England, they let Sikhs ride motorcycles without helmets because it won't fit over the turban. :)
