Have you ever regreted your decision concerning organ donation?

Question

Have you ever been approached about organ donation following the death of a loved one and said no? Do you regret your decision and wish you had said yes?

Answer 1

I work with donor families, and one woman told me that when she was first approached to donate she said yes to organs only and not tissue.

After going through volunteer training and learning more about donation, she says she regrets not having said yes to donating tissue because she knows now that she could have helped even more people.

She now helps to do community outreach and education because she says she wants people to make an informed decision about donation.
