Have you chosen to be an organ donor upon your death based on the heart on your driver's license?

[Simslover92]

I did.

Yes

No

[Beckybooboo]

One thing you need to do, is make sure your family members know you want to donate your organs. A LOT of hospitals, including the one I work at, won't consider a license "official" documentation, they'll seek a family member for official verification that those were your wishes.

[Simslover92]

Oh ok thank you for letting me know that!

[Beckybooboo]

Every state is different. The state I'm in, you have to actually register with the state as an "organ", some states will automatically register you when you get your license. They'll actually ask you when you get your license.

[Simslover92]

Can't remember if they asked me. I live in South Carolina so not sure how it works here.

[avery58]

Yeah, but I have to modify it to specify which organs they can take. I keep forgetting to do that, so I'm saving this question to remember 😂

I don't want them to just take anything and everything.

[Simslover92]

Yeah I should do that too.

[Simslover92]

Thanks

[ohsheeT]

When I first got my Driver's license. Yes, I put down that I would be a donor but then I found out that the donor's family has to pay for the operation that whatever you donated goes into and when I found that out I canceled it out that right now.

[exitseven]

Yes, and I am always afraid that if I ever get in an accident they will pull the plug on me just so some rich guy could get my liver.

[Simslover92]

Same here.

[exitseven]

@Simslover92 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[DreamCrescent]

Family friend’s son was 19. He lost control of his motorcycle

His mom to this day strongly believes he wasn’t given a chance. He arrived to the emergency room, was declared beyond repair and forms drawn up to start harvesting “before he died”

i don’t think it is an appropriate amount of pain for someone to put their loved ones through

[exitseven]

@DreamCrescent That is a horrific story. I would not doubt it. There are people in need of organs that move to Florida because Florida does not have helmet laws and there are a lot more opportunities to get that kidney or heart than in other states.

[Jennz6]

@exitseven
Donate your penis too

[DreamCrescent]

@exitseven
😣😣😣

[exitseven]

@jennz6 It is the only one of my organs that still works right.

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO😎

[Simslover92]

You're welcome! 😊

[Anonymous]

I saw that thing also, that if you're an organ donor you're more likely to "die" in an accident where you wouldn't have otherwise.

[Simslover92]

Whoa didn't hear about that. 😳

[Anonymous]

F*** no! First off, with my stress and love of fried food I doubt any of my organs will be useable. Secondly, if I'm in some bad accident I don't want some surgeon in the O. R. looking at my donor card and then flipping a coin whether to rebuild me or part me out.

[molonski2]

Absolutely I have and everyone should , it's been on my license for more than 30 years , for those who have not done so.. Do it ! immediately

[andreasderjuengere]

I said it earlier:

When the medical industry provides their services for free - then they can have my organs for free.

In other words: not going to happen.

[Jennz6]

Maybe I should, what are you donating? @Simslover92

[Simslover92]

Whatever they need. I'll be dead so it really doesn't matter what they take.

[Jennz6]

@Simslover92
True

[Jennz6]

@Simslover92
I know a guy that has “Penis” on his driver’s license

[Simslover92]

That's not strange lol

[Jennz6]

It’s funny

[MuddyMole]

That's not how it works here, but yes, I am registered as an organ donor, carry a donor card, and have informed my family of my wishes.

[Anonymous]

I’m an organ donor, I don’t care about my organs once I’m dead - plus I want to be cremated so they can harvest anything they want/need without worrying about me not looking pretty after lol. My mom is against it tho…

[Kaneki05]

Well no but that's cause everyone here automatically is unless you ask to be removed. So I'm on it.

[FreyaRed]

I will definitely do if I'm over 50. Because no one wants organs of old people but old people need organs.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

After seeing this thing about a guy that was still alive when they harvested his organs for donation, I’ll pass thanks

[lilBigPotato]

No need to. Where I live you are considered organ donor unless you opt-out

[genericname85]

where i live, that's not on the drivers license. it's an entirely separate thing. we have an opt in system using organ donor cards. i personally always have my organ donor card in my wallet.

[D_Bone_Steak]

No... if you're a donor, they'll kill you so they can sell your body parts.

[AndrésC64]

Absolutely. Although I doubt whether anybody is going to want my organs. But if I can help someone, I think that would be the greatest thing that I could ever do.

[DrPepper12]

Yes. Of course! Wtf am I gonna do with them if I'm dead? ☠️🤔

[Alex-Snow]

I have. Hopefully my parts can help someone else. I'm young and healthy so hopefully my parts would work.

[MannMitAntworten]

I entered the world with all my parts. I intend to be interred the same way. Minus my appendix…

[Iron_Man]

No my sister says it’ll be nothing left of you by the time they take all your organs out

[WonderingManII]

Once I did, but I don't think I have anymore.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Nope I dont know why I feel like if someone important needed you organs they'd let you die to give it to them

[NathanDavis]

I'm an organ donor, yes...

[NathanDavis]

well... I'll be, one day, hopefully

[Simslover92]

That's great! 😊

[NathanDavis]

blood donor as well... now that they allow me to do so

[Simslover92]

That's also great! Wish I could be a blood donor but I'm anemic.

[NathanDavis]

so you're taking your supplements daily... right?

[Simslover92]

Yes I do but I've still always been anemic.

[Blackcat1952]

No not yet maybe probably not. But never say never I'M NOT DEAD YET

[Jmmmfi4]

Absolutely... tried to donate my bone marrow but I was to old

[SotiCoto]

No. I'd rather take as many people out with me as possible when I die.
Actually helping people live is the opposite of what I want.

[NordicInScandinavia]

I'm an organ donor.

[Abbycado]

Yes, I have.

[Abbycado]

@Circushowcowboy is a donor for sick pet hamsters. Good on him.

[Circushowcowboy]

😂😂😂😂😂 shut it!!

[Abbycado]

@Circushowcowboy XD

[Simslover92]

Bahahaha 😂

[qwerty2469]

I have family in Hospitals. They let you die if you are a donor. Lungs are worth 1.5 milly. You could have lived but they have major money to make.

[jamesgoldman]

No, my body is so bad I'm excluded

[Jeff51]

Yes but I plan to live forever tho

[CubaPirate]

Not yet but I plan to

[WhitneySnow]

I have

[wkhan_87]

They didn't asked me and
Written no

[Anonymous]

[Paige90]

[katiesmuff]

[LiaRaven]

Nope
