If you really care about sick people and dying people, donate to the Methuselah Foundation (google it, or Aubrey de Grey). 150,000 people die of aging-related diseases every day, and almost nobody is working on curing that.

I'd say if you care about sick and dying people, you should donate money to Medecins Sans Frontiers* or another development charity. Simple, basic medical care is much cheaper than trying to prolong life (per person) so you will be helping more people, often children who have full lives ahead of them.
