Can an organ donors family request money from the organ recipients?
You can not legally ask for money in exchange for an organ, under the rules governed by the International Transplantation Society. This applies to both before the organ is transplanted, and after the organ is transplanted, even if the recipient has to be retransplanted. This law is designed to eliminate illegal organ trading. However, technically the donor's family could request money from the recipient if it had nothing whatsoever to do with the transplant. For example, if the donor's family knew the recipient before the transplant, and the recipient happened to owe someone in the donor's family £10, it would be perfectly acceptable to ask for it back.

If a donor recipient dies can the organ be re used?
Usually the donor's transplanted organ is not transplanted again - it puts a lot of stress on the organ. And depending on how long the donor recipient has been on immuno-suppression for, some of the other organs may not be used (it can affect the kidneys a lot).
