@LauraEJohnson3@YourTango Agreed, I doubt it would of been the same feeling if the donor was too tall or too emaciated (I have had to reject donors based on both, sadly).
This is interesting and would be true for many in the UK, I wouldn't see it as fat shaming, its due to H&S restrictions of tables and lifting equipment. Donating Your Body To Science Can Help Save Lives — Unless You're Deemed 'Too Fat' https://t.co/7Fu0p7BMxD via @yourtango
@angeliquee_93 @YourTango I agree, I feel for the family, the de-mystifying of body donation needs so much more work, and I think its v helpful that the family wrote this as we can think more about how we explain the constraints we work within.
Its dying matters week @DyingMatters and very appropriate that we as anatomists took time to recognise the amazing gift of donors. Picture from the London Anatomy Thansgiving Service 2019 taken by and at @StGeorgesCath https://t.co/fjSYDLk14I

An interesting reflection on 'hidden morgues' beneath universities. In my experience these are not hidden but not overtly advertised to protect donors. https://t.co/k6xdDDxTrl @Honi_Soit
