Anatomical Board of the State of Florida
Commonly Asked Questions
5. Can I donate someone else's body, for example, that of my wife
or husband?
This cannot be done while the donor is living unless you hold power-of-attorney.
Documentation to this effect will be required. Otherwise, after the individual
dies, the nearest living next-of-kin can donate the body by consent.
