Dr. Todd A. Pollock, plastic surgeon at North Dallas Plastic Surgery, is also the 2014 Dallas County Medical Society (DCMS) President. Since April is National Donate Life month, Dr. Pollock wrote an article about his loss of a friend Mike May and still how “I am comforted by the thought of him ‘outliving himself’ through his organs.” One donor can save as many as eight other lives and, with tissue donation, can make life better for a whole lot more.
As Dr. Pollock reminds us, “According the US Department of Health and Human Services, more than 113,000 people are on the organ transplant list awaiting a donor, and a person is added to that list every 10 minutes… You can register or confirm your registration at donatelifetexas.org. It takes only a minute.”
