What thinks different church about the donation after death?

Organ donation is where a person offers their organs for transplant. Their organs are given to someone who has damaged organs that need to be replaced. Before death, a person out of love and charity may donate organs not necessary for continued life and health, but to save lives; one of two kidneys, one lobe of the liver, and one lobe of one lung, blood, and bone marrow can change their lives.
