bobt Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 I've just signed up on the organ transplant register and gave everything they want - took me a total of about a minute to do... The website is here where you can sign up online, or you can call them and speak to them (a lovely lady answered the phone for me - and she spoke clearly and in English - no indian call centres here). The telephone line is 0845 60 60 400. Do a good deed - sign up if you've not already done so... oh and pass it on..., one day you might need one sign up here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 I have had a donor card for over 25 years and can’t understand why everyone doesn’t have one, as it isn’t going to matter to you once you have shuffled off this mortal coil. :blink: Mind you, after taking to a couple of planks on another forum, I am pretty sure that they are brain donors who have decided to donate their brains in advance. :unsure: G.M.

plexer Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 One thing I read somewhere the other day was do you think doctors will not try as hard to ressucitate you if you are carrying the card or registered? Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Is an Organ Doner the same as a Chicken Doner ? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 I've got a doner card. I get loyalty point every time I get a kebab! Seriously though it is a good idea and should be done. I am a blood donor myself, I walk into the local and go "who wants a fight?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
