  在中国,每年需要做器官移植手术的病人约有150万人,但是能够真正完成移植的只有大约1万人,而器官捐献不足是主要原因之一。由于供体和受体之间的巨大差额,许多病人在绝望的等待中渐渐死去。说起遗体捐赠,多少有点儿犯了中国人的忌讳,认为这会扰了逝者的安宁—这也是许多人不愿意捐赠器官的一个原因。但是,这种想法应该慢慢地被改变,人们应该去理解器官捐赠的意义。这样的话,将会有无数条生命因此而受惠。
  如果有一天,我将要面临死亡,那么我愿意捐赠出自己的遗体吗?在初次接触到器官捐赠这个观念的时候,我就这么问过自己,答案是愿意,所以我也去网上登记注册成为了一名器官捐献志愿者。自己死了,但是自己的一些器官却能在其他人的身体上继续活动着,使一些人重获新生,我觉得这是一件非常神奇的事。如果自己的离去是无可奈何的,那么能心甘情愿地帮助他人留下来也是一件幸事。任性地说一句,烧掉真是太浪费了!
  也许有一天,生命将无法继续,但是,却能以另一种形式延续。
