Yesterday, both Terry and I gave blood. As we travel around, when we see a blood drive we usually try to stop. It really isn't a big deal, giving blood, and it can help so many people.
I figure it's a great way to pay forward.
Remember
Someone needs blood every two seconds.
About one in seven people
entering the hospital will need blood.
One pint of blood can save up to three lives.
Type O is the most common blood type.
O negative is considered a universal blood,
it can be given to anyone regardless of blood type.
If you have O negative
you can ONLY receive O negative blood
If all blood donors gave three times a year,
blood shortages would be a rare event.

Since it's such an easy thing, next time you see a blood drive, consider giving a pint.
