I wish to share with you subject which is really importante nowadays...moreover, for thursday i had to write a esey so thats why i found it in internet coz my in library there arent good books about this subject...
So what i found : there arent any different if you are alive or dead when yo decided to be a donor of organs...
In raport "The Dead Donor Rule and Organ Transplantation” its really interesting.
the truth is that organ donation is causing more and more ethicists to worry about abuses. Ten years ago rumours circulated that homeless people in Brazil were being used as involuntary organ farms, but the stories were difficult to substantiate. More recently debates over the exact nature of "brain death" have highlighted the very real dangers of exploiting vulnerable patients in the effort to provide organs in what has become an extremely lucrative trade.
According to Dr. Julian Savulescu, the Uehiro Chair of Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford, and neonatologist and Oxford graduate student Dominic Wilkinson, bold steps may have to be taken to increase the supply of organs for transplant. This, they say in a co-authored article published, could be accomplished by removing one simple impediment - the requirement of donor "death." In a separate article, published before, Wilkinson suggested an even more radical plan – mandatory organ donation.
"We could abandon the dead donor rule," wrote the pair in article, published on Oxford’s Centre of Practical Ethics’ website. "We could for example, allow organs to be taken from people who are not brain dead, but who have suffered such severe injury that they would be permanently unconscious, like Terry Schiavo, who would be allowed to die anyway by removal of their medical treatment."
Savulescu(Romanian-Australian professor, thx GOd that he is not POLISH
) and his protégé, graduate student Dominic Wilkinson, published the article in response to the concerns raised by Australian Dr. James Tibballs that under the current “brain death” criteria, most donors will actually surrender their organs while they are still alive.
Wilkinson also published a solo article on October 20, in which he not only suggested the removal of the death criteria for organ donation, but also the criteria of consent.
One solution to the perceived dearth of donated organs, Wilkinson says, is to simply give patients the option to donate their organs before death. Another alternative: remove the superfluous requirement of choice. "We may come to think that the benefit of organ donation is so great that we should reject the current charade of informed consent for organ donation," wrote Wilkinson.
“After all, at present thousands of patients per year die for want of an available organ. Yet every day potentially life-saving organs are buried or burned because their owners did not make their wishes clear during life, because their families could not come to terms with the idea of donation, or because doctors failed to approach families to ask them for permission.
"Consent is relevant to what happens to us while we are alive. But once we are dead, our organs cannot benefit us, while they could save the lives of up to 6 others. Perhaps it is time to contemplate mandatory organ donation after death?"
Savulescu and Wilkinson, however, also take into consideration this objection by suggesting that people who have merely "a low chance of any meaningful recovery" could still be eligible for organ removal.
Conservative bioethicist Wesley J. Smith responded to Wilkinson’s original article, saying, "I believe and hope that this remains a minority view."
"But the fact that it is considered a matter of respectable discourse is cause for concern."

Every 13 minutes a new name is added to the national waiting list for organs in the United States.
One of those names could soon be mine. OR we can look on it like this :every 13 minutes another person waitting for your death
or just praying for your death...

I donated my brain last year, but it doesn't seem to have made much difference.
