I once asked two doctors about organ donation and they gave me the same answer that I am not eligible for donating any organ, not even if it is in good shape. One doctor told me they may consider those organs from brain cancer patients but not others. She gave the reasons but they are too complicated for me to explain here. Rather discouraging since I really wished before I had cancer to donate my organs when I die.
