Most people can donate organs and/or tissue and also regardless of age. There are few absolute exclusions (HIV positive, active cancer, systemic infection). Potential donors will be evaluated for suitability when the occasion arises.
Any one can choose to donate his organs including heart, kidneys, liver, lungs, pancreas and small intestine depending on their age, medical condition and circumstances at the time of death. Usually each organ is evaluated for possible donation.
After writing about Matt and Ron yesterday, I was reading more about Paired Donation Network.
It is a unique and faster way to get a kidney donation for your loved one who needs a transplant.
Paired Donation Network helps in situations where you want to donate a kidney/other organ to your loved one who needs it. But your loved one is unable to accept your donation because of medical reasons. So what you do here is to pledge that you will donate your organ to anyone else who is inneed of it. Similarly, friends and relatives of other patients who needs organ donation will pledge to donate their organs. This increases the possibility of finding a match as the number of people donating for a specific cause increases.
If you are inneed of a transplant, please reach out to your closest Paired Donation Network. More details can be obtained at http://www.paireddonationnetwork.org/ and please, spread the word of paired donation network. God Bless.
Isnt it nice when miracles just continue to happen. I read today that a Michigan man decided to donate one of his kidneys to a person he had never met. Nice inst it. But it doesn’t stop there. Now the Phoenix woman’s husband will donate one of his kidneys to a perfect stranger. Wow. That is nice. Now again, it doesn’t stop there. That woman’s best friend will then do the same. And so on and so on. I am really happy to see people do this. Let this chain event rekindle the spirit of organ donation in the society. God Bless.
Thanks to Matt Jones from Michigan who started this chain event. Thanks to Ron Bunnell from Phoenix, who decided to donate his kidney continuing the charity.
After almost working year and half on developing Sanjivan, I realized that I didn’t reach my target audience. Also my email, discussion forums were all spammed by spam bots. So I decided to use wordpress and move on to a blog format with information. More information to come soon. Thanks for visiting and supporting Sanjivan.
