Do you know what your parents wish for regarding organ donation? The Montélimar Hospital Centre – Groupement Hospitalier Portes de Provence is launching an appeal for family discussions on the subject. "Because one day, this question may arise. And in that difficult moment, knowing their wishes can change everything," the institution explains.
On the occasion of World Organ Donation and Transplant Day, held on October 17, 2026, the hospital encourages everyone to talk about their own wishes and to ask their loved ones about theirs. "Simply ask them: 'If one day the question arose, what would you want me to know about your choice?'", suggests the statement.
The key message is clear: "To save lives, you must have said it." The initiative aims to break taboos and facilitate decisions in critical moments.
