"Leave My Organs Alone, I'm Not Dead Yet"

[Canary42]

Surgeons too eager by half.  I think I'll cancel my organ donation card.

Scary!  It would make a good horror film plot.

one of the people on the very distant branches of my family tree was emigrating to Salt Lake City in the 1840s but fell ill during an outbreak of cholera aboard ship and was declared dead. Just as he was about to be slid overboard his wife noticed his eyelids fluttering so the funeral was called off.

He was still very weak, though, so she had to haul the handcart from New Orleans to Utah herself.  And after a few years there he married another woman, like a good Mormon. They're all buried together, but I wonder if she ever asked herself why she'd bothered.

Dead god, I mean I know they're short of donors but even so.......
