I used to work in a blood bank, though I never did white cells. I heard about them, though...

What you did was beyond remarkable! I mean, most people won't even donate blood. And there you are, making yourself sick so that you can help someone who is deathly ill...

I really hope you get that call Thursday..

You gave the gift of life.

Thank you!
