Organ Donation: An Important Discussion for Young People
Accidents are the leading cause of death for people under 24 years old. The nature of accidents often means that young people are best suited for organ donation because dying in an accident creates a possible scenario that someone's organ are healthy enough and are able to be artificially kept alive long enough to be donated to someone else. So how do you make sure your wishes are known if you want, or don't want, to be a donor? Is checking a box enough? This week, I speak with Michelle Post, MA, LMFT about organ donation and how to start conversations with family members about your wishes.
