Recognise Deceased Donors as Heroes


Recognise Deceased Donors as Heroes
The issue
DECEASED ORGAN DONATION can only happen in Australia if the family of the deceased person give’s consent.
A grieving family who has lost a loved one, in tragic circumstances, is faced with the choice as to whether they will support organ donation of their loved one’s organs to save the lives of strangers.
Australia must recognise these families and their deceased family member with a special order of honour and show them the respect they deserve as heroes.
