It’s also important to make sure you let your family know that you intend to be an organ donor. Because stupidly, even despite registering as an organ donor, your family is allowed to override that wish after your death.

Are they still allowed to do that if you haven’t spoken to them in years, or do you have to legally disown them to get them out of the equation?

I think it would have to be a legal process, but I’m not sure. It would basically depend on whether they have some document somewhere that tells them who they’re supposed to contact as your NOK, I suspect.
