A rebuttable presumption is now established that a person who makes a written anatomical gift in compliance with law intended to make an anatomical gift. It provides procedures for ascertaining the donor's intent. Physicians who follow a donor's anatomical gift directive are provided immunity from civil liability.
Donation is an act of faith, hope and charity.
It is heartfelt generosity. It's an effort to fill a void through a simple gesture of love and love of life. No one questions that donating organs and other tissues is a personal decision. And that is precisely the point of this new law. The personal nature of such a decision comes from the very soul of the individual.
