A positive to taking care of a patient with the most serious condition is that a life was saved just in time. When you go for someone who is not in a serious place you jeopardize losing more people. The goal should be to save as many lives as possible. The thought of a patient who has a year to live to someone who can die in a week if an organ is not given seems more logical. The age and the likely hood of survival should also be considered as well to ashore that the organ was used to the fullest. The down fall to donating an organ to a near death patient would be considering have they waited too long. The patient may have waited too long that a transplant will not work. Secondly, if the procedure is done will it affect other parts of the body
