I mentioned in my first post that I went to a seminary about transplants. I have always been interested in that topic of medicine, and many people think transplants are bad. For many reasons: they think the doctor are not going to attend themselves or a loved one well. In Chile, the most donated organs are provided by a death donors (in the case of the organs you can donate in life, like kidneys, in some organs like heart or lungs theres no option)
Another big problem is the people don't undestand the brain death. because the patient is still breathing and the blood is circulating in the body.
Before the creation of regulating laws to avoid the traffic of organs, in Chile there were a lot of cases of children's cornea traffic.

Religion is very important too, but an interesting fact: the only people against to the donation are the tibetan mokns, cause they need all their organs to reincarnate.
I'm really interested in organs transplants because I think is very important people understand what is, and how it works so in the future I hope many more people decide to donate their organs to another person who needs them.
Thanks for reading!
Woa, this is a huge huge topic. I agree with you, there is generally very little information and awareness of donation.
