I know I am being unreasonable but ....

[mumofbeautys]

Me again sorry this is going to be a rant.

so I am sitting in hospital with my daughter yet again, who has finally dropped off to sleep ... guess where were going to be spending xmas.

after talking to a consultang about how important a lung transplant will be as in 18 months ago it was said she wouldnt survive 2-3 years without one, I got increasingly upset thinking about how many .. no offence people have died and had capable lungs for transplants but never signed up. I know I aibu and people have there own reasons but its ok to still be angry right ?
Why dont people sign up, what will they lose by signing.

I haven't Been nasty about people who said they are unsure so I would like the same respect dotty.. hope you never find yourself in a situation where u or someone u love needs one

Sorry dotty that was aimed at red helen not u x

red helen is there something wrong with you?
What a completely vile thing to say.
You are seriously fucked up to say something like that.
I'm not even going to ask if you've imagined yourself in the situation such as the ops or mine because you clearly lack empathy.

I'm quite sure that if one of the nay sayers' children needed a child donor's organ, and if it was available, that they would take it.

Crossing fingers that your sick children are given a life line.

DH and I have made our wishes known to each other and our immediate families.

DS(10) has very strong opinions against donation as a result of what happened when his birth mother died and her organs were donated - it wasn't handled well to say the very least and he heard a lot of talk that he really shouldn't have. His view is that the entire process is disrespectful and the donor is treated like a spare parts depot to be raided at will, he is certainly not wrong based on the situation he witnessed (I know it's usually handled much more sensitively but he's still too angry to take that on board). He would, when old enough, consent to my/DH's wishes being carried out, but he has made me and DH promise not to override his wishes.

DD(6) did her hand wavy thing when the subject last came up and said that she knew DH and I would make the right choice if it were ever needed.

OP, it's not UR to be angry when you're in such a desperate situation, not at all UR.

were still here, she has a v bad infection x

Thinking of you, and hoping a donor is found very shortly x

Sorry to hear that OP I presume she is on stonking ABs so I hope they do their job. Fingers crossed for you

Just popped back to say 'hi', mumofbeautys. Hope your little girl is having a peaceful night and managing to turn that infection around.

Who is looking after your other twin? I hope there is someone to help you while your daughter is in hospital.
