We defend two ethical solutions to the problem of organ shortage. One is to make deceased donor organs automatically available for transplant without requiring consent from the donor or their relatives.

Through a shared decisionmaking model, her burden of making decisions on Ed’s behalf could be lessened, and she could become more open to acknowledging her son’s desire to die peacefully and come to be at peace with this decision, knowing that she did not give up on her son.
