My best friend is O-, and he gets Red Cross invites out the ASS. I think he gets notices of every blood drive within 100 miles. And I love how they always say "You're our Type O Hero!".

Yeah, I get letters from them all the time. I'm just really bad at planning and that sort of thing. It's like organ donation. Illinois recently passed a law making one's wishes on organ donation legally binding. The idea being this way your family can't prevent your organs from being donated if it's what you wanted. So now you have to re-sign up (lifegoeson.com). I want to donate my organs, but have I signed up? No. Why? I don't know.

Well while I was unable to donate whole blood today (was under FDA time limit), I did give double platelet.
And did anyone else give today?

Surgery on Monday, so I'm out of the loop for a little while - but I do know that the Bloodmobile is in town the first Thursday of the month - so I'm going to try as soon as I can!

Good for you-best wishes on your recovery/rehap.
I should have mensioned in my posting that there were two people at
blood bank giving for the very first time.
Both said that thought it was the right thing to do.

Hey, Jon, you should organize a GC blood drive - but remember, you need cool t-shirts and lots of snacks!
