I think I can see this from both sides.

Bananrama, my hubby like you thinks that if they are going to make it compulsory and take away our rights with regards to our bodies then some contribution should be made to the cost of funerals etc.. in fact he said he was going to write to Gordon Brown and give him a costing for his organs and ask him to pay for them now so he can benefit from the money while alive. A very black and white view from him lol

I think it is about choice. I dont think people are opposed to donating organs, I think it is that yet another choice is being removed from us. The one thing in this life we can be sure of is that our bodies belong to us, yet the way this has been put across is that this is no longer the case.

I do want to be a donor but I dont want my corneas to be used, now if we follow the route being proposed then this would be something they had the right to take. Dont ask me why I just dont want them taking bits of my eyes, it isnt going to save a life so leave them alone for gods sake.
