Myth Busting - We could all save lives
Manage episode 337407495 series 2950754
Be #PeopleSmart Founder, Jodie Greer, chats with Robert Chelsea, burn survivor, amputee, and face transplant recipient, about the difference organ donations make to so many people.
Jodie and Robert are busting the myths that:
"Organ donation is all about internal organs" and
"If you have a health condition, you can't be an organ donor".
Did you know, 1 donated eye can save the sight of 8 people?
Robert shares his personal experiences of being in a car accident, resulting in severe burns and a 6 month coma, and then receiving a face transplant from a donor.
You can find Jodie and Robert on LinkedIn.
