Donating Body To Science

[USSpurdy]

I am 77 years old and was diagnosed with MF 2 years ago. I am doing well and all of my blood chemistry looks good........so my oncologist told me today!

I am considering donating my body to science, when the time comes, however, the way I feel this will not happen in the near future.

My question is....does anyone know of any one or organization involved in ET research that might be interested?

Great question...

And a wonderful act of selflessness...

Sorry that I am unable to assist with an answer... But maybe seek out anyone doing any type of MPN research, and ask them... (?)

Maybe ask St Guys & Thomas? Or even Maz might know?

In any event, let's hope it will not be anytime too soon... Life is quite short enough without any help, is it not? ;-0)

Best wishes

Hi again, I asked Prof Harrison at Guy's Hospital, she said:

Not in a whole body, there are plenty of groups who would for example be interested in blood or bone marrow while he/she is alive.

Medical schools would have the facility to discuss ? Whole body but that would likely be more for anatomy purposes .

I hope this helps, Best wishes, Maz
