Organs Of Donation

I write from a deep, spiritual and compassionate place, words which have never seen the light of day. They have been private because they are emotive and unpopular and I have not needed to share them. You have your words which are true to you. And yet, there is a line in my will, in bold type, which states that no part of me may be taken for organ donation. Nor will I accept someone else’s body part if I am sick.
I pause here while you gather together in your world view all of the reasons why this should be. Is it perhaps because I am
Selfish
Fearful
Religious
HIV
Ignorant?
No. None of these.
I have spent a life time working in the spiritual realms, dedicating decades to enabling people to come to a place of healing and working with their dis-ease. I have also been a Primary school teacher. I have my marbles.
Yes, I am against any sort of organ donation. You may not be and that is fine. I hear a lot about why we should but why we shouldn’t is rarely spoken about. It is fine to talk about what we can see in front of the curtain but not what is behind it.
Would it not be better to stop saving lives at any cost but instead to enable people to be comfortable with death? Some of you reading this may be heart transplant surgeons or genetic scientists and those, in our landscape, hold a lot of weight. You are the curtain. I have worked behind the curtain. There are more things in heaven and earth Horatio……
We are all going to die and I am truly blessed in being very comfortable with that. It has been a long journey for me to know that there is nothing to fear, in fact quite the reverse. And when my body fails, as it will, then that will be the time for me to depart. Of course I would take an antibiotic to fight an infection or have a cast on a broken leg, but there is a line for me which I would not cross and that is with organ donation. One of the most important things ever said to me came from the mouth of a paediatric nurse. “We do not all live to be old,” she stated, “and that is absolutely fine.” More vital is to work with why we are here for a short/middling or long time and to use that time, giving it the attention it deserves.
We are more than our body, and yet our body defines who we are and it enables a lot of our life experiences. All parts of our body have our own unique vibration. Unless our body is in a state of dis-ease it recognises its own. There are many well documented reports of transplant patients recognising and even taking on one of the characteristics of their donor. It is one of the reasons why neither a borrower nor a lender will I be. We are not vibrationally programmed to accept tissue from other peoples’ bodies. The other reason is knowing that death is just a temporary transition. We should focus far more on knowing when it is time to live and when it is time to die. Let us actively embrace both. All is well.
