Organ donation (so maybe slightly ghoulish)
Posted: 12 Sep 2016, 15:36
I am currently having the most bizarre conversation of my life, with a chap on the NHS Organ Donation page on Facebook, about which bits of me I want to leave I contacted them as my donor card is tatty, and cardboard instead of a plastic card, and is also in my old married name - despite me being a Jones for almost 12 years now. So I asked what I should do about updating, and they asked me to take the conversation to PM, and give them my details there and then so they could send me a new card.
"Gavin" has just asked me if, as I said on my old card that they could have any bits they wanted, I am happy for all major organs and tissue for donation, or if not suitable for donation, for medical research? Major organs is totally fine, but what do they mean by tissue? Not sure I want to end up in a glass jar on a shelf - "Does my bum look big in this test tube...............?"
Totally bizarre......................
