Why aren't you an organ donor?
One thing I am a really strong advocate for is being an organ donor. I honestly think that is kind of silly for anyone to not want to be an organ donor. I can understand the fear of donating blood or bone marrow while you're alive, but there's really no reason you shouldn't designate yourself as an organ donor when you're dead. Are you saving your organs for some other special occasion? Do you think you've got a need for your organs when you are dead? Are you really concerned about how you'll look in your casket without your organs? Here's a list of
organ donation myths.
I don't want to live as a vegetable. I feel sorry for Terri Schaivo and the battle to keep her alive. If I ever get like that, I've told Tracy to pull the plug. I don't want to be a burden and if there's really no hope of meaningful recovery, it's just not worth it. Hopefully someone can make good use of my organs.

One reason lots of people don't register as organ donors is because of religious restrictions. If god says you shouldn't do it, then I suppose you should listen. If you believe in such things, of course.
