Why or why not. I am because I want my physical body to be used to help others when I no longer need it. Whatever doesn't get donated, I want cremated. How about you?

Yes I am. When I die I want to be able to give other people another chance at life. I havent decided if I want to be buried or cremated though, probably buried.

Yeah I like the "recycle yourself" concept too. Isn't it amazing how that little card in your purse has the potential to put into motion the saving of a life? Thank you.

I'm not an organ donor. As much as I want to help somebody else, I'm afraid of my body being taken apart even if I'm not going to feel it.

You can choose which organs you would like to have donated. You can also leave it up to your surviving family members to decide if your organs should be donated or not. Thank you.

LOL. I just commented to a person above you about how you can even donate your eyeballs. Thanks for sharing this, I think it's important to know just how needed our organs are. My mother has a button that says, "Don't take your organs to heaven, heaven knows we need them here"
