Best Answer

If you donate an organ, such as a kidney, while you are still alive, the disadvantage is that you will only have one kidney left. So, if it were to fail, you would need a new one from someone else.

If you become an organ donor (on your drivers license), there is no disadvantage. They will only take your organs after you die.
