There are some people who sell their organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, eggs (for women) and others with reasons to refinance their lives. How can they live if the organs one by one they have sold? ...

Money is important but more valuable organs should therefore be on guarded.

When I die, I am more than happy to donate my organs to those who may need them. I hope to be able to help someone through this.

Although already dead but still want to benefit others

I read somewhere that a teenager sold his kidney, because he was desperate to buy iphone and ipad.

The world has gone mad !

Of course if someone sells their heart, liver or lungs the only thing they might be financing is their own funeral.

Selling a single kidney is possible as one can live with only one kidney, and selling sperm to sperm banks, or eggs for women聟(again to help with infertile couples) is about as common in much of the world as giving blood or platelets for a fee.

About the most disgusting thing I ever heard of along these lines here in Bali was from some Swedish guy who proudly told me that when his son was born here in Bali he took the placenta home to cook and eat! I kid you not.

Or, too many shepherds donating in all the wrong places."
