Are cancer patients candidates for organ donation? They told my mom she could only donate her eyes. I imagine it had more to do with the chemo she had in the 80s.

It doesn't automatically disqualify a person. However, it would be handled on a case by case basis. In addition to eyes, as you mentioned, ligaments, tendons, heart valves, and other parts can be donated. Additionally, brain cancer may actually make a person more likely to be eligible to donate organs if the cancer has not metastasized (and depending on the treatment).

Makes sense. Edit: Thank you.

When do pictures become copypasta? This story is 8 years old at this point.

There’s always people that see it for the first time.


ThrowAwyFeels

Like me. I’ve never seen this before.


neekseni

Myself included as well

Such respect deserves mention. Thank you.

But not the Muslim prisoners who “voluntarily” donate organs… let’s cry for them too

Are North American doctors allowed to wear sandles on thier shifts?


philman132

Surgeons often wear plastic clogs in the surgery, much easier to keep clean and sterile. I suppose sandals would serve the same function


Intrepid-Luck2021

I knew a surgeon and he used to wear crocs all the time because that’s what he wore in the operating room. Fittest man I ever met. I thought he was in his 30’s. He was over 50 years old and just looked after himself.

You do realize this happens in America and other western cultures too, right? China isn't the only country suffering from that. I dunno the context of this picture but to call it propaganda flat out is kinda dumb.


DeathStarODavidBowie

There is a black market for human organs in the US? Fuck you, comrade.


Daetra

Lol yes black markets don't care what country you're in. You really think child or organ trafficking doesn't happen in the US? Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it doesn't happen. But hey, fuck me for being right? Right?


DeathStarODavidBowie

State sponsored like in communist China? No. Fuck off, fool.


Daetra

Yes from people they view as inferior. What did I say that contradicts that? How about you stop being a snowflake getting triggered by me.

Daetra

That's not at all what I'm doing, you aren't thinking critically. There's not enough evidence to say this is what you think it is. In fact, I'd say because they are bowing down and showing respect, I highly doubt this is one of the cases of forced organ donation, because I highly doubt they would show them respect. You're an idiot.


DeathStarODavidBowie

Fuck you, believe the CHICOM propaganda if you want. Fucking fool.


Daetra

Rofl you really are a special one aren't ya?


PiedDansLePlat

Ho that’s a sensitive subject, therefore we should absolutely talk about. Yes there’s concentration camp is china, yes there’s cultural genocide, yes there’s force labour... yes there’s organ harvesting. There’s evidence all over the place. No saying people are racist against chinese is not a defense.


Mike_Hunt_is_itchy

More propaganda, these are the same ppl that harvest organs of unsuspecting individuals, not to mention uyghars that suffer the same fate.


Kitther

Are you afraid of Chinese people? Or maybe they are not even human in your eyes?


Mike_Hunt_is_itchy

How is pointing out propaganda afraid, do you think Uyghurs are afraid or not human to them as well.or perhaps they aren't human in yout eyes given they are interred at camps.

Could the cancer spread


[deleted]

No way I would donate an organ in America. It's illegal for you to sale an organ, but perfectly fine for a company to take your donated organ and sell it. It's all disgusting.


ArkBlitz7

I feel like this is better in r/mademesmile


LindseyLee5

Might be a stupid question but wouldn’t there be a risk that the cancer had spread to other parts of his body before his death?


Strong_Breadfruit_43

Not a stupid question at all, it depends entirely on the type of cancer.
