Yep. I'll be dead anyway, so I have no use for them anymore. If it can save someone's life then imo it'd be a bit selfish not to. I was already registered when it was still opt-in, but now it's become opt-out here in the Netherlands so even better. It'll make sure that a lot of people who don't care either way will now save life's that we otherwise wouldn't.

Not sure if I'm completely registered, but any time I've been asked I check Yes, and I have it checked on my health card.

Like you said: "why not?" Not like I'll be using them any more at that point.

I am, but I probably shouldn't be. My organs are...not in the best shape.

Nice try fed, won't get my organs that easily

I'm volunteer to donate because of I accidentally die, rather that it deserve someone who would have more luck than me rather than no one.

Now in Belgium it works a bit differently. Everyone is, by default, considered as a donor.

You can then register to either refuse it or to impose it whatever your family says.

This is because the law is that the doctors must always ask the family if they are ok to give organs from diseased family member even with the "by default donor", with the registration you can say "don't ask my family and just do it".

This can be used in two situation in my opinion, the first one being family that have different conviction and may refuse despite the opinion of the diseased. The second situation (mine) being not wanting to worry grieving family with one more difficult decision to take.

By default in our country. You have to unregister if you don't want it.

Yes, because I won't need my organs when I'm dead.

I am not. HOWEVER, it is simply because my spouse will be the one to make the decision. Not that I don't trust doctors, but it's a decision my spouse and I talked about.

Yes however, I'm torn between either donating my organs or donating my body to science.

My thinking is I could maybe help save a couple of lives if my organs are in a decent enough state, although with my life style they probably wont be, or maybe my body could be used as a cadaver to train new doctors possibly saving a lot more lives.

Even if its not used for training doctors my thinking is that even a small amount learnt from the use of my body has got to help somewhere.

Yes. My state makes it really easy, just check a box when renewing your ID or driver's license. I can only hope if I lost my life I could give a new lease on life to someone else.

Yes, but I've since been diagnosed with leukemia.... Hopefully that doesn't mean my spare parts are trash but I suspect that's the case.

Please don't bury me down in the cold cold ground

In all seriousness I'd rather they cut me up and pass me all around.

Yes. And I volunteer plasma every 2 weeks. Up to 25 donations in a weeks time.

Organ donation is the last honorable / good thing you can do for the world after you've left. You'll be forgotten soon after dying, so might as well make it worth something

Well, I can’t take them with me…

Back on topic. I believe this is opt-out in my country (if it didn't change recently), so unless you specifically state that you want all your organs inside to feed the worms or to get more ash for your urn, you're automatically possible donor.

EDIT: Just checked, it's still opt-out. It's opt-in only for minors and incapacitated - their parents/legal representative have to agree.

Yes. Mostly because I have generally been healthy and used to ride a motorcycle.

Yes. In fact, I just registered for this a few weeks ago.

Yeah, I'm registered, just in case the agency in charge manages to not fuck up that day.

Yes, in the case of an untimely death i could really help people.

I remember a guy went around to all the different country subs and asked what they thought about an opt-out organ donor policy instead of an opt-in donor. The results were interesting (which you can probably guess).

no, I will when I'm 18 tho

like others have said, I'm dead, idgaf
