SECRETARY OF STATE JESSE WHITE IS RECOGNIZING THIS WEEKEND’S NATIONAL DONOR SABBATH…A CAMPAIGN TO DISPEL SOME OF THE MYTHS ABOUT ORGAN DONATION.
SECRETARY WHITE SAYS THERE ARE A LOT OF COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT GIVING THE GIFT OF LIFE…ESPECIALLY IN THE RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY.
SOME WORRY IT’S AGAINST THEIR RELIGION, OR THAT IF THEY ARE AN ORGAN DONOR, DOCTORS WON’T TRY THEIR HARDEST TO SAVE THEM.
IN ILLINOIS…THERE ARE ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE WAITING FOR AN ORGAN. TO SIGN UP TO BE A DONOR, STOP BY A STATE DRIVER’S LICENSE FACILITY OR VISIT THE WEBSITE: LIFE GOES ON DOT COM.
