Being a organ donor is commendable. But keep in mind certain donations require body temperature and regulating of its own fluids to and from the organs.
So after death is declared, if there is no donor recipient ready at that moment (More in a sec) your body is hooked up to life support blood and lung bypass. You will be kept at normal vitals until such time the donor recipient arrives.
At that point you will be taken to the OR suite where there is a special surgeon waiting. Your body will be strapped down because once the chopping begins, your body will jerk and fall off the table on it's own based on automatic reflexes against severe pain.
The Surgeon has one thought only. Get to that particular organ extremely fast. Once chopped out and everything is harvested, your remains go to whomever is able to claim it. If not? Sent to the Crematory. If it is your heart they are after it will be beating and functioning when they chop that out. You would have died twice.
If you were a donor and you are declared dead in trauma or something, they will wait about 90 seconds. Then start chopping. YOU probably will be on your way out feeling the last of that. But that too shall pass.
I cannot donate. if I did it would be rejected for a variety of good reasons including preexisting damage and so on.
