Organs Being Taken from Living People!
It sounds like something from a horror film, but it's actually being done in this country. Dr. Paul A. Bryne, a Neonatologist, and Director of Neonatology and Director of Pediatrics at St. Charles Mercy Hospital in Oregon, Ohio, writes about it in an article published in Renew America today.
Here's an excerpt from that article:
We are continually bombarded with ads to be an organ donor. We are told that we are giving the "gift of life" in organ donation. We are led to believe that organs are taken for transplantation after true death — i.e., after the heart and circulation stops and there is no known way to restore them. We are seldom, if ever, made aware that after true death, the heart, liver, and other vital organs are not suitable for transplantation.
I recommend you read the entire story here.

Wow. I read the whole article. This really concerns me.
ReplyDeleteThose who are close to death are of course very vulnerable in our culture that so disrespects life. God bless this doctor for speaking the truth.
