I used to be both a blood donor, and an anticipated organ donor. However, since I had cancer, I am out of the running for either. Bummer. On both counts.
I think it's a great thing to do--you are going to need them!
I still want you all to "take care"--I am just damn tired of typing it.
You trying this again?
The night we spent in that hotel room was wonderful until I woke up in the bathtub filled with ice and you and my kidney were gone.
When you requested the room next to the ice machine at check-in that should have tipped me off.
that made me ill to even think about it!!! hahaha.
but uhmmm if you want to.. ill pay for your other one this time
P.S it makes me really happy to see so many of you are! I have learned a huuuuge amount since meeting my fiance. everything from dialysis to transplants to nephrologists. but one of the best moments, was being in the transplant ward and looking into the rooms of all the people who got a second chance out of life! they were given something back. i think most people go through their lives and never realize just how different it could be.
ours are GREEN here in PA.
and you are brave with bone marrow. i'm usually good with medical stuff, but that procedure scares me.
You're not joking. I remember in college a couple of my friends signed up for bone marrow studies in college and told me the procedure was the most painful thing they've ever had done to them.

Yikes!!!---I never got to that point! so I am not THAT Brave. Yet!! But thanks guys
So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me
i will be an organ donor when i meet my demise.
it's on my driver's license as such.
perhaps i could donate a kidney or something before my death, i don't know.
my brother ryan (passed away 3 yrs ago) was a juvenile diabetic
from 2nd grade on. later in his early to mid 20's his kidney's failed.
he did dialysis for a bit till he receieved a doube organ transplant.
a kidney and a pancreas.
my brother Ryan rocks, he is always around keeping me on track.

its so hard to stand by the people you love and be so helpless. Good for you that you can give back to someone in the same position as you
i think i'm too twisted to be an organ donor, if part of me is transplanted to someone else they might get corrupted
you know its funny... after my fiance's 2nd transplant.. he started craving things he never liked before. it was so odd. like almost a switch turned on. so yes you do live on through someone else

if that's the case then
i want some dude to have my tongue and weasel
when i pass on to the other side
he has to love women though, that's the only stipulation i ask of him
and the medical staff
never thought about that..whoops
maybe they wouldn't what my brain after all.
it's probably covered in bong resin and whatnot
they'd be waking up in the odd small hours of the morning writing like an idiot.
i don't think they'd be waking up, what is likely to happen is me waking up in someone else's body, cause i believe our brain makes us what we are..........and a heart to some extent, because it's linked closely to the brain, so it's bound to have stored memory of the person who was alive before.

I am also on the list for bone marrow. I was close to giving once--had to take a ton of blood tests but then someone else matched better!!!
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me
that made me ill to even think about it!!! hahaha.
but uhmmm if you want to.. ill pay for your other one this time

After 5 with my particular brand, you're pretty much in the clear.
