Proponents believe that each human cell has a soul or spirit that has a memory. In a transplant, doctors take care of the mechanical side of the organ and the donor's cells' "memories" survive in the recipient.
| There are several cases of cellular memory. A seven-year-old girl had vivid nightmares about a child's murder after being given the heart of the murder victim. The specific details of the nightmares helped to convict the murderer (so the story goes). A woman craved beer and KFC after her lung/heart transplant - the favorite foods of her donor. A man became an accomplished artist after receiving the heart of a scenic artist. The stories (more here) are compelling, but is it valid? |   |
The only case recognized by the scientific community is a 15-year-old Australian girl, whose blood type changed following a liver transplant.
Can consciousness survive a physical death? Are there memories in the organs?
We'll know if the person who receives my donated heart finds my keys.
