The doctor emphasizes the importance of talking to the family about the desire to be a donor
As National Organ Donor Day approaches, celebrated on September 27, writer and clinical pathologist Luiz Teixeira, postgraduate in organ and tissue harvesting and transplantation at the Israelite Albert Einstein Hospital, has used his social networks to help demystify the topic.
“It’s been five years since my graduation and I can say that all the dedication and effort has paid off,” he began to say.
He then recalled that donation is a gesture of love, which changes destiny, restores health and makes a difference in the life of those in need.
“Did you know that donation consists of taking organs and tissues from the body of a recently deceased person, or a voluntary donor, with the aim of transplanting it or grafting it to other living people? This, without a doubt, is the noblest gesture of a human being, “said Dr. Luiz Teixeira.
Finally, he reiterated that, despite the widening of the discussion on the subject in recent years, it is still a controversial and difficult to understand topic, which translates into a high rate of family rejection.
Therefore, the doctor stressed that the talk of donation is important and recommended the dialogue on opting for this desire to cooperate for this purpose while it is still alive.
