Organ Donation as a Legacy: Leaving a Positive Impact After Death

Paraventure organ donation is made compulsory by the government. For one thing, it's going to be a great step forward in our bid to save more lives and make the dead still have a positive impact on the living while they're gone to the world beyond. Looking at our world presently, loads of people are plagued with different illnesses that affect their organs, and getting organ seems pretty difficult and expensive, but when it's made compulsory to donate those of the dead, I believe it'll relive the pressure on medical practitioners and as well make organ transplants seamless.

I've seen different scenarios where some people are sick and need organ transplants but can't get any donations or afford to buy one, and meanwhile people are dying whose organs are still intact and go to waste because their family or they themselves don't want to give out their organs. We can't entirely blame those who don't want to donate their organs because they've got different beliefs, ideologies, and religions that can go against such practices.

But personally for me, I don't see any big deal in donating my organs to those alive that might need it while I'm dead; I've got no need for such organs again while in the grave, so instead of letting them rotten in the grave and useless, then it's best I let someone else have them and give such a person a chance to have a good life once again.

I've always had this belief and would love for it to be so when I'm dead, and when the government makes such a proclamation, it'll increase the chances of many people who are in need of different body organs to get them and live a healthy life going forward, although it's worth noting that this policy will have its good and bad sides, and below I explore some of the positives and negatives impact compulsory organ donation can lead to.

And to start with taking about the positives, first on the list is the fact that it'll save more lives. When you make organ donations compulsory for everyone that's dead to give, that means, unlike we used to have a shortage of organs to go round for everyone, now we'll have enough to go round, or at least to reach more people, no matter how scanty it's at the moment.

Some of the other good side is that it'll make the process of organ transplanting much faster, because it'll be available, and not forgetting that shortage of organs will also be reduced to a minimal level; this will also make it much normal for everyone to do and not be seen as something strange like it's at the moment, and last but not least, you'll be made compulsory; I think it'll make the transplanting process cheaper; and make the sharing equitable between everyone regardless of their societal status.

On the other hand, some of its negative or bad sides can be as follows: one is that it can go against some people's ideology or religious beliefs, and making it compulsory will mean making people go against their beliefs. Another downside is that it can lead to abuse and exploitation, making those in charge favor the wealthy to get organs ahead of the poor, and last but not least, I think it might reduce effort put in by my medical practitioner to save lives or go the extra mile since they believe they can also get organ to replace faulty ones.

But then regardless of the ups and downs regarding organ donations, I see it as a good course, and I personally will want to key myself into it by donating my organs to those who need it when I'm going. I'll be more fulfilled knowing I've had a positive impact on someone's lives and family, even when I'm gone due to my organs that's keeping sick people alive and healthy.
