B- BLOOD NEEDED

[gothwalk]

There's an email starting to spread across Ireland, asking anyone who has the B- blood type to get in touch with Vincent Boyer at happyvincent@netscape.net. I've just checked with him, and the request is genuine - a friend of his has leukemia, and the Blood Transfusion Board can't find anyone with the right blood type. So if you're in Ireland - or in Europe, for that matter - and have the right blood type, please contact Vincent at the above address. If you haven't, please pick this up and spread it on, on mailing lists (where on-topic or allowed), on blogs and journals, and so on. There are 4 million people in Ireland, and many more in Europe, someone must be B-.

blood donation

[aidian.livejournal.com]

I heart blood donation! Everyone should go at least once, even if it's just to find out whether or not they're able to donate in the future. As a Certified Registered Medical Assistant student, I feel I can confidently say that blood saves lives. You don't have to have a stupid title to realise that, either. My workplace invites the local community blood center regularly; they come every 8 weeks(the minimum time you should have between whole blood donations).

please oh please, donate blood. usually you get a nice shirt out of it, or at least some cookies. blood centers have the best snackies. :)
