Donating Your FVL Mutated Body to Science

People with Factor V Leiden, especially those who have had unusual or recurring, over-the-top symptoms, have an opportunity to help generations that follow us by donating their body to science.

While this might not be for everyone, since many people believe there are moral and/or spiritual issues involved, many people believe that it is a great way to prevent future generations from suffering from our ailments.

Some things to keep in mind when donating your body to science-

* To put it bluntly, you'll be dead, so you must take into account the feelings of friends and family left behind. How will your decision affect them?

* You will still need to make alternate arrangements, in case your body is not needed at the time of your death.

* How will you feel about it as you grow older?

If you are interested in donating your body to science, the best place to start is the local medical university. Most have programs in place and will be more than happy to provide you with information.

FYI- Laws prevent universities and most medical institutions from purchasing your body, therefore your gift will be the great help you are affording generations to come, not monetary.
