And don't call this my 'deathbed.' Call it my 'bed of life,' and let my body be taken from it to help others lead fuller lives.\\nGive my sight to a man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face or love in the eyes of a woman.\\nGive my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain.\\nGive my blood to the teenager who has been pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play.\\nGive my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week.\\nTake my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk.\\nExplore every corner of my brain. Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that someday a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her windows.\\nBurn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow.\\nIf you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all my prejudice against my fellow man.\\nGive my soul to God. If by chance you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked, I will live forever."
