A person close to me worked at DNA as a recovery tech and I can assure you that the techs there do good work in a dignified manner. The job can be rough sometimes (children) and you work all over the state at all hours, but the satisfaction that you are helping people in need overrides the difficulties. Recoveries are generally taken in mortuaries, hospitals, and medical examiner offices, and provide a vital service for people needing transplants. I know 2 people who have been recipients of donation: veins during breast reconstruction surgery following cancer, and corneas. DNAs work is done in a very dignified manner and I am signed up in their registry for when my time comes to contribute something to humanity. My dad chose a different path: Science Care. He liked the whole body research angle as his grandfather was a doctor. Dad died at home and when they came to get him, they were very professional and courteous. They even snipped his whiskers for us to keep since we knew the option my dad chose would not give us back his ashes (they even asked us if we wanted to change this preference but we decided to honor our dad's wishes). You shouldn't live your life in fear of what happens to your shell when you depart. You can bury or cremate a whole, intact body, or you can donate life saving organs and leave a piece of yourself here on earth as a benefit to others. Your choice. Just don't make it out of paranoia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5126508869325778596.post-33158450779117637072015-02-16T03:51:40.428-07:002015-02-16T03:51:40.428-07:00I don't know if I'd be so quick to endorse...I don't know if I'd be so quick to endorse Donor Network of Arizona... unless they're paying you a kickback. Salary and bonuses don't count as profit. In early 2014, the FBI raided Biological Resource Center, founded by Stephen Gore. Gore previously worked for Donor Network of Arizona. During the time he was working for them in 2000, there was an incident where Gore went to a hospital to harvest the eyes of a patient that had just died, Dominic Marion. When the body got to the funeral home, it was discovered that the genitals had been harvested without consent. There have been a couple of other complaints of Donor Network of Arizona taking more than they got consent for. I have a feeling they do that way more often than anyone knows. They just cremate the evidence. I'd be curious to know how many other people had that happen to their family member but just never filed a lawsuit.

This one video is about a story in Arizona, the state I live in, But many of the references I am relating to are about personal experiences I have had. I am not a collage educated man, I am a retired Marine who owns a funeral home and I interact on a daily basis with the community who has experienced the good and bad of this "Whole Body Donation" thing. I share those experiences they had, and come to my conclusions around their feedback and that information I find on the internet about the industry, both good and bad.<br /><br />Miguel LegaspiAvenidas Funeral Chapelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10104214610625969274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5126508869325778596.post-33578322068724302282013-08-17T02:23:31.060-07:002013-08-17T02:23:31.060-07:00Write more, thats all I have to say.

No to stand in defence of AATB, but they have been arround as an accrediting agency for a very long time, why do we as a society need two? I dont know, I dont promote or recomend ANYTHING that has to do with anotomical donation. I dont believe in it and I dont support "For Proffit" organizations that do operate under those For Proffit guidlines. I am not a genius, but I'm sorry, I do some reaserch on the internet to put my BLOGS together, and in regards to whole body donation, these are the items I have followed up on. Thanks for asking though. Thank you for showing an interest.<br />Avenidas Funeral Chapelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10104214610625969274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5126508869325778596.post-44573543009806413242013-04-18T16:40:07.500-07:002013-04-18T16:40:07.500-07:00Di you ever end up contacting anyone at AMERA to s...Di you ever end up contacting anyone at AMERA to see what they are all about? I know the AMERA folks and their standards were the first to be published and are more stringent than AATBs standards.
