Michael lives in a country that operates under an opt-out system for organ donation. When Michael was young, he received a life-saving organ transplant. This experience had a deep impact on his life, allowing him to live a long and fulfilling life.  The transplant comes with a condition that when any of Michael’s organs or tissues were found biologically compatible and suitable for a particular recipient, Michael will be contacted to contribute his organ/tissue.

However, as he aged, Michael developed personal beliefs that led him to decide against donating his organs after death. He formalized this decision in an advanced directive, explicitly stating his wish not to donate his organs. When Michael dies, his son, aware of the advanced directive, faces a moral dilemma. The country is experiencing a critical shortage of organs for transplantation, and many lives could be saved if more organs were available. Michael's son believes that his father, having benefited from organ donation, has a reciprocal duty to help others in need. Acting on this belief, he decides to hide Michael's advanced directive, allowing his organs to be donated.

Ethical dilemma: Fulfill the duty to donate or the obligation to honor prior consent and respect for the donor’s autonomy?

Danny was born with a specific purpose unbeknownst to her until adulthood: to save her older sister, Catherine, from a fatal kidney disease. Their mother deliberately conceived Danny as a genetically compatible donor for Catherine, who was expected to need a kidney transplant around the age of 30. Catherine, unaware of the true reason behind Danny's birth, genuinely loves her sister and even risked her own life to save Danny during a sudden blizzard on a hiking trip.

As Danny grows up and discovers her mother's intentions, she feels used and dehumanized, viewing herself as merely an instrument created to save her sister. When the time comes for the kidney transplant that could save Catherine's life, Danny, still feeling betrayed and angry, chooses not to donate her kidney. Unfortunately, Catherine eventually succumbs to her illness, leading to widespread criticism of Danny as selfish.

Ethical dilemma: Is it immoral for Danny to refuse to donate her organ to her sibling, given that she has the right to make her own decisions and autonomy not to donate?
