In the UK, from experience, the hospital don't ask if the person wishes to donate.
What bought this on is watching the TV advert about organ donation. The advert mentions that many would accept an organ but not give one.
Its the oddest thing as I feel for some reason, may be religious, that I want to be buried whole. Maybe its something about the afterlife, if there is one. I see myself as quite a rational person yet can seem to be rational in this case. I looked in to many religions and did the buddhist thing of seeing corpses that had been dead a day a week a month two months six months and a year. So the understanding of the body is a vessle sort of thing but seem to be stuck.
