Christmas Wish To All Blood Donors

Merry Christmas to all my readers. May this time with your families be a joyous one. This year christmas for us was a wonderful time spent with the family, lots of lovely food, presents, laughter and friends. However in our minds we remembered all those in hospital at this time. We spent our christmas in hospital last year, and it brought for us a realisation that just being a family, just being together was most important of all. So thanks to all those dedicated blood donors that make this possible for us and for others. My christmas wish to you is that you recieve all that you desire and more.

MERRY CHRISTMAS MERRY CHRISTMAS MERRY CHRISTMAS MERRY CHRISTMAS

Blood Donors = Living A Normal Life

We spend one day in the childrens hospital every month. Two of our children have a blood disorder called Sickle cell thalassaemia. They both require whole red blood transfusions every four weeks, so they can both live a normal life. Our children both have approximately six dedicated donors.

There are many types of Blood Donors.
Some people donate blood once in their lifetime, others might donate two or three times. Then there are those that donate blood for many years until they can no longer do so. There are those donors that give whole red blood, those that donate platelets and others donate plasma.
