Because I'm  blind, I obviously don't have a drivers license. But on my 
state of Missouri I  D card, it says that I can be an organ donor. When I got 
it, the lady asked me  if I wanted to be an organ donor and I said yes.

Quite a story - in particular that his piano teacher donated a  kidney to  
him - what a wonderful act of compassion!   I  have met quite a few  people 
who have donated kidneys to others over  the years - they are remarkable  
people and I always thank them for  their decision. They were all very 
pleased  
with their  decision.
And here come's the question.  Most people  have  space on the back of 
their driver's license to indicate that  they are willing to  donate their 
organs upon death.    Since blind folks don't have  driver's licenses, does 
the 
stat ID  provide the capability to indicate  willingness to donate?
And my next question is - are your IDs   signed?

Fellow  Federationists

A blind man named Scott  Mcintyre reached the top ten in  American Idol.  
After  graduating from college he was diagnosed with stage  4 kidney 
failure  
and underwent dialysis.  

The wife of his piano  teacher  donated a kidney which saved Scott's life.  
He wrote a book   titled By faith not by Sight.  Of course the news media 
portrayed him  as  being inspirational but this is a blind person who 
actually  
accomplished  something.  

Cordially,

Jim   Moynihan
