About a month ago, I posted a question regarding 'peoples blood type'.
Even if you would NEVER receive a blood transfusion, it's important to know. Moreso if you are an Rh Negative Mother with an Rh Positive baby.
This is so tragic. Given the mere simplicity of typing blood, that this would happen. What an absolute tragedy beyond words.
I for one, am glad I found out mine. Travelling in Asia, I would have been up the proverbial '...creek without a paddle' had I needed any medical attention.
Sad. Very sad, and so unnecessary.
SO...folks, even if you DO not ever wish to receive a transfusion, there are other reasons for knowing your blood type, and avoiding some potential mix-ups.
I feel badly for this family....so unnecessary.
Get your blood type checked when you can, it never hurts.
