On Organ Donation

If you’re brain-dead by accidents: Your eyes can continue to see By being placed in one who needs, And live for another life-time! Your heart can continue to beat In one who needs a living pump To circulate the blood around! Your kidneys both can excrete wastes In persons two with uraemia, And help them live for some more years! Your liver transplanted in one With alcoholic cirrhosis Can help him live for some more weeks! Your pancreas, lungs, intestines, Bone, bone-marrow and entire skin Can be help to keep fifty alive! Donate your other organs too To ones in dire need of them, And make your corpse to help men live! So, gift your body parts to ones Who seem to be in verge of death And help continue to breathe! Donate your organs; help men live! You can serve God and man though dead! Copyright by Dr John Celes 9-5-2009
