I don't know how to title this.

WE have a Donor by Mark Dowie is an excellent easy breezy non technical read for the the general pulbic. The very people who will make the decisions to donate or not. Information to help make an informed decision regarding organ donation. There are thousands out here needing transplants with others too afraid to sign the donor card because of inaccurate information or Gossip being spread. Some people are afraid the physicians will not do enough to save their lives because an organ is needed. I actually heard a person say this. Hog Wash! The physicias will always do everything possible to save a person's life. After being on dialysis for 18 months I received a transplant from a brain dead accident victim. It is the "Gift of Life". My younger brother died suddenly this month and his organs were donated to help save others as he wished. I have been on both sides of this issue and believe this to be a perfect read for anyone wanting information on organ donation.
