Whilst cyber bullying is not physical it's emotional and psychological effects are devastating for
the victim and can often lead to suicide and depression (Hinduja & Patchin, 2010). Social
Networking sites act as a platform where bullies can say things they might not usually say to
someone in person, anonymity and less physical proximity act as a wall between the bully and the
victim, none the less, the words or rumors' that are shared are still just as hurtful. Bullies often feel
more confident online and they can contact their victims anytime, anywhere, day or night, not just in
the school yard (Smith et al., 2008)." (Procon. (24 O). Retrieved from http:/
/socialnetworking.procon.org/) For example "Jamey Rodemeyer in 2011 a 14–year–old boy from

Topic: Organ Donation
Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience to donate their organs and tissues when they die and to
act upon their decision to donate.
Thesis Statement: The need is constantly growing for organ donors and it is very simple to be an

I. INTRODUCTION
A. Attention material/Credibility Material: How do you feel when you have to wait for something
you really, really want? What if it was something you couldn't live without? Well, my cousin was
five years old when he found out he needed a new kidney. He went on the organ waiting list right
away. He was called twice during a six month span that they had a kidney available only to...show

2) The reason is that there are only on the average 6,000 donors nationally per year (Life Source:
Statistics).
c. You can choose to donate any needed organs or you can specify which organs or tissues you wish
to donate.
2. Organ donation is very important.
a. The following poem by Robert Test entitled, "To Remember Me," shows the importance of organ
donation.
"Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face or love in the eyes of a
woman. Give my heart to a person whose heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain... Take
my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child
walk...Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that, someday, a speechless boy will shout at
the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window
b. Not only is this a problem nationally but also it is a big problem right here at home in Colorado.
1) Nationally, there are over 120,000 people waiting as of November 1, 2011. As of November 7,
2011, there are 1,142 people from Colorado that are on the organ waiting list (Life Source: Statistics).
2) The sad part is that there have only been 137 donors in Colorado so far from January 2011
through November 2011 (Life Source: Newsnotes).
[Transition: I'm sure that you can see the need for people like you to donate your organs. But you
might be asking, well, how can I make sure my organs are donated after I die? Let me tell you.]
