If you are an organ donor & your family objects - does the family's objection over ride your final?
Nope, if you're registered. If you aren't and it's only hearsay, next of kin word may override yours, as the doctors wouldn't really know your intentions and there wouldn't be any way to tell. So next of kin orders would be followed.
If your have a state recognized notarized health directive to 'pull the plug', doctors will pull the plug against any other next of kin's wishes. However, family can delay the process by going to court which, in case of organ donation, is really a bad thing.
If you do not make your wishes known in writing, you are leaving it to your family because what you wanted will be here-say. If it's their word against yours, they win because you are dead and no one will be able to verify what you wanted. This is why it is SO important to have an advanced directive written up.
No. We all should donate. We can help someone down the line and that is what life is about.
When you can help someone, you do it.

17 people per day or 6,205 per year die due to a lack of available organs for transplant. 0 lives will be saved if we do nothing.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
