Colorado man dies after transplant operation

So on my drivers license there is donor permission to harvest whatever they can harvest to help someone else. You can give after you are deceased & still help someone live to see another day.

I also was listed as an organ donor on my license for many years, but had it removed when I last had it renewed. Considering my senior status, there isn't much left of me that would benefit anyone else - believe me!

Oh yes there is. They can use your skin for burn patients; if your kidneys are ok they can be used for a senior citizen who might need one. They can use bones, tendons, veins - lots of stuff.

I'm older than you, and I'm still a potential donor.

Way to go Grace. Pomtzu almost had me thinking my parts wouldn't be worth it & a waste of time. Now I feel better.

I know 2 people who had kidney transplants. One being a 7 year old girl.

I'm an organ donor. I figure if they find something that still works, they can have it! I doubt I'll be needing it
