Is the Retention of Organs From Fetuses/babies Wrong? Posted: 12-27-04 12:03pm
Just like to get a few oppinions on this
subject as it is a huge problem in the
uk.
There are a lot of doctors out there who
belive they have the right to retain
organs of fetuses/babies for medical
science some may ask what is wrong with
that? But these doctors are doing this
without parental consent.How do people
feel about this? Please let me know your
oppinions.
Thanks

are you thinking of alder hey here?
Personally, I think there should be an
opt-out scheme for post-18 posthumous
organ donation rather than the current
opt-in, as many people never get round to
getting a donor card etc.
I'd like to see all parents donate their
fetus/childs body, but I recognise that's
not my choice to make. They should choose
as even after death organ donation is a
choice.

i am actualy thinking pendulbury childrens
hospital as part of storm I would just
like to point out that it is happening in
over 50 hospitals in the uk. I certainly
agree that organs are needed but as you
said it should be with choice/ consent.
What these doctors are actualy doing is
only just short of body snatching. :(

I think it is wrong to do such a thing but
at least these children have not died
invain... Thankfully there death may help
people... Never the less it is wrong for
us to kill them for this purpose... If
the child died of natural causes then I
would have no problem with it.... So long
as the mother allowed it... But if the
mother chooses to abort why should the
mother have any say over the child?
There is a much worse problem: the
extraction of live fetus' keeping them
alive for so long and using them to
experiment on... That is just so wrong...
Like how the doctors used still alive
jews durring wwii to experiment on....
Really sometimes I wonder why all those
soldiers died in wwii we may have beat
germany but its obvious we still lost to
the nazi ideology.

these children are dying of natural causes
so why does that make it ok for doctors to
steal their bodies / organs ? I for one
will keep up the fight for my sons body
although if asked I would probably allowed
them to use my son to help look into
disease and illness but this fact doe,snt
mean that they can steal bodies therfore
denying a family the right to bury their
loved ones and go throught the normal
motion of greive.
