My life was saved a couple of times because of blood transfusions. I would love to donate now, but unfortunately, because I lived in Enland over 20 years ago, I am ineligible because of the slight possibility of mad cow disease.
Please consider donating! Think of it this way, your 1 donated pint will be the very blood that saves someone’s life.
A nice reminder of how easy it is to give of ourselves this holiday season.
