Hospitals in UK will harvest organs from patients without permission

I don't care one way or the other. I'm on the donor list for all my organs when I die. I won't need them in heaven so why not let someone else who may die waiting for a heart, lung, liver, etc. have mine if they are healthy.

I don't think this is right either. I think people should have a choice. Where are our human rights? They have gone down the drain these days. Where are our privacy rights? When did we lose our choices in life? I'm sure glad they haven't done this here in Canada or the United States. Although I do believe in organ donors. I want to donate my organs or my body if my organs are not donatable. I would like to donate my bodu to the univercity for the students to learn from. I have voiced my opinions on this matter to my children and my husband so I hope when my time is up, they abide by my wishes. If they can't do it for some reason I want to be cremated.

Here in Uruguay, when you enter a hospital to have an operation, they ask you if you want to be an organ's donor. If you agree, you sign a letter of consent. Only in that case your organs can be used for a transplant if you die.

This should be a sin against humanity...God gave us this body to do with as we wish, to make choices with, rather good or bad...I feel that this is my body and if i want to donate it fine, but when they take an organ without permission, then that is stealing..No one gave them this right and it is wrong to take over without consulting you are a family member..

I am in favor of organ donation but I have to wonder about the legality of this in England. Here we have to consent to this. I think that taking an organ without consent of the patient or the family is wrong.

oh way !! without asking the person is soooo wrong. now i going to myself but man o man i hope they dont

They should have permission first! and hoping that they check them out to see if they are good first if they took mine wouldnt be good for they probably wont work for any one else but work just fine for me lol

I am an organ donor and as I want be cremated I think that people who want to be cremated should allow their organs to be harvested instead of just being burned to ashes. For other people why should they care they cant take them with them and they are only going to rot and get eaten by maggots anyway.

abhorant is what I think of it! such disregard of people, even with their remains - which many believe to have once housed the Holy Ghost. This is downright despicable! but, I could have figured that it would come to this and as time progresses what will they excuse and permit themselves to next??? farming organs, selective harvesting from living individuals?
