My wife, a Registered Nursed, warned me years ago TO REMOVE MY DONOR CONSENT before I was in any kind of accident...she said they would take my organs, whether or not I could survive whatever crisis put me at risk of having my organs removed. She witnessed an older lady having her eyeballs removed, for transplantation, while she was still alive. Quite disturbing it is to learn that organs MUST be harvested while the donor is alive. I have since learned that dead organs cannot be successfully transplanted...again....they must, by definition be harvested from a living person. Yea...some doctors pronounce people "brain dead"...and proceed to fill an order for some parts. Parts originating from "abortions" are also being sold, I am told. These sicko miscreants cannot be trusted. My wife also shocked a doctor, who during a surgical procedure, and was asked a question by her....while she was supposed to be unconscious....he almost had a heart attack...and ordered the anesthetist to add more drugs to knock her out properly....Trust? No way. we've seen too much to trust them.

This is way more common than most people realize. Do NOT sign up to be an organ donor. If you already have, do what it takes to reverse it. The problem arises out of a looser definition of “brain dead” that doctors use that is often at odds with state law but they never get prosecuted because, guess what, the crime victim is well and truly dead after the organs are harvested and the next of kin have no idea what happened. Often the victim is given a paralytic to keep him still but NO ANESTHESIA. Truly terrifying. I’ll have nothing to do with this.
