Don’t put off your goals until tomorrow when you can start today. Cool

 

First I would like to say this is very admirable of you! You can donate your body to science by doing a whole body donation. If you are just an organ donor for example you do not really have much control over where your organs will go. However if you do a whole body donation you will have a contract with a medical university or organization to donate your body to them specifically for MS then you can guarantee your body will be used for that purpose! You can also arrange for your remains to be cremated and returned to your family. This is a link for the Rocky Mountain MS center....they have all of the info you need over donating. http://www.mscenter.org/content/view/7/190/

Age is a number, and mine is unlisted!

Make sure this is clearly stated in your will.  You do have a will - right?
