I was having a conversation with my sister and several of her friends all of whom are nurses about my lisence and wether I should be an organ donor and they all vehemently agreed that I should not for the above mentioned reason. They explained that its well known in the medical community that EMTs and nurses put more effort into non-organ donors care than that of an organ donors in the case of an emergency where a member of both groups is represented. It's triage and organ donors are lower down on the town pole when it comes to triage. The only so called risk to the careers would be if they were overheard by their superiors which is highly unlikely seeing as we weren't in the hospital or if someone decided to report them for their opinion an even then their superiors would more than likely be of the same mind.
