I believe strongly in organ donation and blood donation.

I am an organ donor. I would be a blood donor but they will not allow me because I do not weigh enough for their standards. I used to be a blood donor when I weighed more.

My state also has a place on the drivers license to designate me as an organ donor, but I do not have it on my license because I do not want it there... and because in my state the thing on the license is just for show - they can not and will not do anything without the permission of the next of kin. So to me, it seemed pointless to have it on my license.

I have a very intricate will that includes a living will, information about my wishes for organ donation and my wishes on who makes medical and legal decisions on my behalf. It's complicated, but I have numerous lawyers in my family so it is family tradition for us to complicate everything

Long story short - my husband has all power and decision making authority. There are provisions for who gets that authority if he is also incapicated or dead... it is complicated in part because I needed to keep my psycho-mother out of the equation and away from any decision making power.

But my wishes to be an organ donor is in the paperwork, and I have made my wishes clear to my family so they know what to do if they can't find the paperwork
