Peter explains how presumed consent helped him.

The idea that I live in a country that wants to help people by default is wonderful. Especially with something as important as organ donation. I heard that 3 people die every day waiting for a transplant. If I can do something to help, yes please. It is also helpful as we are all presumed donors now it takes the burden off families – they must be devastated. It must be so hard when someone has died suddenly and then families are asked about organ donation. Making it my decision makes things easier for everyone. I would be so upset if my family didn’t support my decision, I mean it is the law of the land now.
