Regarding the secrecy involved in organ donation, there is a lot of testing, both physical and psychological, before one is even placed on the transplant list. Not everyone is eligible for a transplant, even if they are physically able to handle the surgery. There is an awful lot of emotion involved, which can easily skew reason. The powers that be behind the transplant network feel it's better to keep individuals separate.
I have a certain insight from the other side (as a transplant recipient). On one hand I would love to meet the donor family, if only so they can see how much their loss has changed my life. However, there is a tremendous amount of guilt involved - in order for me to be alive, someone had to die. It's a little easier to think of it as a miraculous bit of recycling than to know how much a family had to suffer to make it happen.

Good morning all...another 40C day with humidity. Can`t wait till this evening when the humidity breaks! Don`t want to sound like a gruppy guy-I do enjoy summer but with comfortable temps where you can enjoy outdoor activities.

Well, it appears I will be in town this weekend. DL/H concert is rescheduled to Jul 28, which actually works out better for me. Good thing I didn't tell the critters they were off to the treat dispensers' place for a holiday, they'd rebel at the thought of being stuck with me this weekend.
