Remember Me Please
The day will come when my body will lay upon a white
sheet neatly tucked under 4 corners of a matterass
located in a hospital busy with the living and the
Dying. At a certain moment a doctor will determine
that my brain has ceased to function and for all
intents and purposes my life has stopped.when that
happends do not attempt to install artifical life in
my body by the use of machine and don't call this my
Death bed Let it be called The bed of Life and my body
be taken from it to help others reach fuller lives.

Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise,
a baby's face or a love in the eyes of a woman. Give
my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the
wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his
grandkids play. Give my kidnes to someone who depends
on a machine to live from week too week. Take my body
every muscle every fiber and every nerve in my body
and find a way to make a crippled child walk.Explore
everycorner of my brain take my cells if necessary and
let it them grow so that some day a speechless boy
will shout and hear the crack of a bat and a girl will hear
the sound of rain against her window

Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the
flowers grow. If you must bury something let be my
faults ,my weakness and all prejudeses against my
fellow man. Give my sins to the devil and give my sole
to God . If by chance you wish to reamber me do it
with a kind deed or word to someone who needs it. If
you do all i have asked I will live forever.
