Back in 1971 a young lad got wiped up by a car whilst attempting to cross the Marylebone flyover in the Harrow Road. He had no identity and we put a description out of the deceased in the Paddington Mercury. I had to go down the morgue and take his fingerprints. Not easy as the finger joints have to be broken due to rigor mortis. I noticed a large recent scar down the abdomen of the cadaver and asked ,Mr Jackson the Pathologist's assistant what that was about.
He replied with a nod,nod,wink,wink, that someone was in need of a new heart. About two weeks later the Greek parents of the young lad reported their son missing and then identified the hollow remains of their son.

As has always been the case for me they are welcome to any of it.
What I would like to see though is a priority system whereby those willing to donate get first choice on a suitable organ. Only after those willing to donate have been exhausted should the refusers be offered bits.
Shouldnt be difficult given todays tech.
