“A gift like no other “
It is with the family’s permission that I’d like to share with you the incredible generosity shown by them at a time of heartbreaking grief in supporting their relative’s decision to become an organ donor - a truly selfless act that has resulted in three people receiving life changing organ transplants.
It is thanks to the kindness of strangers that lives can be saved and transformed - giving the wonderful chance of a healthier and brighter future.
Each year, hundreds of opportunities for transplants are missed because families aren't sure what to do.
Your family will always be consulted about whether you wanted to be an organ donor or not, and clinicians will never proceed with organ donation if your family or loved ones object.
If you want to be an organ donor after you die, it's really important that you talk to your loved ones and make sure they understand and support your organ donation decision. You can also register your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register.
Perhaps now is the time to talk to your loved ones - so that opportunities for transplants aren’t missed because families aren't sure what to do.
Transplant truly is the gift like no other 🤍🤍###
