It's not terribly impressive, but given the small size of this town and the small number of pubs at the KH, this might be relatively huge.
I just emailed this to the newspaper editor today: I gave blood Tuesday, April 4th for the first time. Somewhere, someone's life might be saved by my donation. I work at **** hospital*** and have seen blood used to bring color to someone's granny's cheeks, to help a new mom recover from a difficult childbirth and to give a young man with cancer a higher count so that he can receive chemotherapy and continue his fight. As well, a donated unit of blood is used to make vaccinations, medications and other "fractions", which are used to benefit the people who need them. This is something that I'm happy and proud to be a part of. At one time in my life, I did not have the freedom of giving blood because of religious reasons. However, after much research and thought, my conscience could no longer allow letting misinterpreted scriptures and life-threatening doctrines come between me and doing the right thing for those in my community. The ******'s Bloodbank's mobile unit is at ***** the first Tuesday of the month. I encourage everyone to donate if they're able and become a part of saving someone's life
