Organ donation

I just briefly heard something on TV today about organ donation, didn't pay much attention to it because I started to wonder this..

 

I wonder if anyone out there has had an organ transplant then died later on and that organ has been donated to someone else, then they could die and donate that same organ on to someone else.

Obviously most organs will come with a best before date, but if the new owners die only a few years after receiving the organ it could be used many times over in theory.

 

Weird thought that some people out there could have a kidney that has had more owners than a 15 year old Ford Fiesta.

It's another repost. Probably best to ignore everyone with a post count of 1.
