I asked this question in a thread in health matters, didnt get a single response, either because the thread was too serious of the question was ste... soon find out...

So, you're an organ donor, and on the bone marrow transplant list, and maybe even nice enough to give up a kidney to a family member or possibly even a stranger!!! (lets add blood and sperm/eggs to the list too!)

As it stands I dont think you never know the recipient of your various bits and pieces and bodily fluids!

Blood? if you could would you tick the box that said "not to be donated to benefits claimaints/work-shy/dolites"

Sperm/eggs? the number of borderline ethnic cleansing suggestions on here is pretty high.. I'm guessing we dont want them breeding any more?

what about that bone marrow, its a painful procedure to donate marrow, would you donate it to a nobhead? kerry katona? or let them die as the world will be a better place with that little bit more oxygen they were wasting!

kidney? I think most of us wouldnt do it for anyone except an immediate family member.

Over to you lot.....

ETA took out the bit about organ transplants as the replies were sort of missing the point a bit... it's the living transplants/donations I was really getting at... would you donate marrow to a pikey? illegal immigrant? other daily mail hatelist member?

I wouldnt donate part of or all of my liver to a chronic alcoholic just so they could live a few more months drinking themselves to a death

Of course folk would. That's precisely why you don't know of the recipients.

You'd have to be a bit of a st IMO to start stipulating who your organs go to when you croak it.

You're dead, you don't need them anymore. If you don't want them to go to someone whom you believe is inferior then don't be a donor.

yes

But bone marrow or a kidney (or eggs) are possible while you're alive but are painful and potentially risky so I'd only donate for a family member.

buuuut according to pistonheads dolites are scum and should be culled.

Therefore giving them perfectly good body bits shouldnt be done, think of the tax payers money spent on the op as well as the "waste" of a good organ going into a chav!

not that I'm agreeing or disagreeing, just playing devils advocte really..

fwiw I'm a card carring donor for all bits and bobs, but I dont donate sperm or blood, because I dont want any more little me's running around or any surprise visits in 16 years time.. and I dont have the time for the blood donation.

But more importantly than the post mortem bits, what about the bits you can donate whilst alive?

Forget kidneys, family members only..

What about the sperm, blood, eggs, bone marrow, assuming no risk to yourself, and minimal discomfort would you really extend/save Kerry Katonas life (or someone like her) with a donation?

As has already been said here, she wouldnt get pissed on if she was on fire! do you mean it??

If I don't need them anymore and choose to donate them, I'd want a medical professional to decide who receives it based upon need/benefit. It's not something I'd want any choice over.

What about the living donations?

I've never really considered any living donations (other than blood) if I'm honest, I guess you don't hear as much about the need for them.

Can't say I'd feel any different about it though, I wouldn't want to make any decisions over someone else's health, or even want to know who any of it went to. Ethics are difficult enough in healthcare with a professional, dispassionate view.

If my sperm would save someone's life they could have as much as they can handle wink

To me at least, part of the donation process is the knowledge that even the most appalling member of society, could benefit from my kindness and live long enough to see the error of their ways . . . . . . . . . . . or to put it another way, it’s like paying income tax, I know it's highly unlikely that I'm going to get something back in return, but there is a very slim chance it may do some good and I can then take the moral high ground as and when needed biggrin

The more I think about this the more complicated its getting..

Lets say I'm adamant that I dont care where my donations go... even living donations, I'll give my marrow to anyone that needs it..

Except the anyone isnt Kerry Katona, it's Ian Huntly... hmmm starting to rethink now...

then if I start rethinking about Huntly, might as well stick Katona, Katie Price and anyone that's best outfit is a tracksuit on the list too.

I'm sure for a tenner KK would let you piddle on her, no need for fire (unless Emsman was involved, obviously).

Contrary to popular opinion, there are a number of prominent PHers who seem all too keen on the lower classes receiving their organs.

You know who you are.

"I'll give you blood/lung/liver as long as you promise never to rape my wife when i'm gone."


Don't be so silly. The only morals are if they are grateful for receiving or you are grateful for giving. The 2 should never be crossed.

Have I missed something? Is Katona looking for a donation of something or is this a hypothetical question?
