The gift of life...

[Roughneck]

I just realized that our resident population here is fairly young.... other than a few rickety old gits like myself and a few others that is.

Anyway, I just realized that it is almost time for my apharesis donation again. Which led me to this topic.

How many of y'all here are:
1. ***** donors/plasma donors
2. Donors of platlets
3. Organ Donors (or registered as organ donors)
4. Marrow Donors (or registered as marrow donors)

I'm registered for 3 and 4 (The wife donated part of her bone marrow to a 10 year old with leukemia a few years ago). I donate ***** and since the **** have left home, I've started donating platelets again.

Remember, signing up for organ donation [US residents usually do this with their drivers license] doesn't automatically enable you to donate marrow (separate product with separate matching methods).

'Tis, as they say, is the season for giving.
Let your gift this season, be the gift of life.
