    My only caveat is that I’m not an organ donor, but my wife and family know that they can authorize organ donation on my behalf if it comes to that. I just want someone who knows me personally to make the decision, not just a hospital board who is playing a numbers game. Maybe a bit more selfish, I just want someone in my court who will pause to think about it.

      Hmm, can you actually choose who the organs go to? In my country at least I don’t think that’s allowed. You’re either a donor or you’re not, but it’s doctors/hospital/board/however it’s called, who decide where the organs go, based on need, probability of success, etc. But I suppose that’s different in every country.

      Why? But why are you not an organ donnor and why would your wishes even matter? You will be death. Your organs can either decompose in the dirt, or help save a life and reduce suffering. Why do you want “someone in your court” to decide?

      It is, indeed, very selfish of you. Why?

        If I’m not dead though, if I’m in a hospital with a 50/50 shot, or in a coma, or in any number of ways where I’m still alive. Not saying I don’t trust doctors, but I want that decision to be my spouse’s, even if I’m on an operating table. They know my wishes, and they will say yes only if they’re satisfied there’s nothing else to be done.
