Positives from a tragedy

The tragic death of Nastasha Richardson shocked many last week.  If anything good is to come out of this, she donated her organs.  Hopefully this encourages others to tell their friends and family that they will donate their organs.

My whole stance on the organ donation issue is that it should be mandatory.  No mainstream religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, etc.) are against the practice, despite a few nutty believers who would rather someone die than have their carcass hacked up.

I truly believe that in order to be admitted to a hospital, people should be required to donate their organs should they die.
