I am listed on the CA DMV website for being an organ donor. Since I've got my driver's license I have always marked I want to be an organ donor. Also my family knows I wish to be a donor if anything happens. Please speak with your family if you wish to be an organ donor. In some states the family can still override the wishes of someone who has indicated they want to be a donor.
One of my good friends is a recipient of a donor kidney. She got it last year and is doing great.
Phi Sigma Sigma was just a sponsor of the transplant games this past couple of weeks. If you go to the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation website some sisters and members of the Foundation kept a daily blog from the games. Some of the stories about donor families and recipients families just had me crying. I think I may have copied and pasted one of the blogs in to the Phi Sigma Sigma forum on greekchat.
Save a life - be an organ donor. Depending on the organ and your condition you won't need the organs anymore
