I recently made another O negative blood donation at Canadian Blood Services on Bayers Road here in Halifax.
This one was dedicated to my friend Annie who’s fighting her battle, she’s is my late mother-in-laws Faye’s best friend.
Cancer patients depend on blood transfusions during their battles.
Did you know that only 7% of Canadian share this O negative blood type that is the universal type of blood for all those that need transfusions.
Donating the 500 ml or one pint of blood can help save up to three lives and it only takes less than an hour.
I did it in 6:01, my record is 5:00.
The snacks at the end are awesome too!
This year Canadian Blood Services needs up to 100,000 new donors and Fall is always a critical time.
You can do your part and be a lifesaver by making an appointment here.
Thanks!
