That's a great experience to share & the more people that hear these positive stories, the more organs that will be donated.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09199476377949600019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617756042930231416.post-59141692423001448152008-08-28T09:41:00.000+12:002008-08-28T09:41:00.000+12:00My brother passed away about 12 years ago and alth...My brother passed away about 12 years ago and although he indicated he was willing to be a donor on his drivers license, the decision very much came down to the family as to whether 'we' would donate his organs and then which of them we would donate. I make a point of sharing my experience with this and the ways that it was positive for me (ie knowing that other children kept their dad and other families still have loved ones because of my brothers gift).
