My Gift Comments

23 April 2018, noon. Reported at the Layton Red Cross donation center. Was greeted by Denise Lang, a Red Cross Volunteer. She helped me check in. Then Jerry Faimau took over and verified my eligibility and proceeded with the blood draw. I was in and out within an hour. I encourage everyone to donate The Gift of Life.

My wife and I just returned from a vacation to Thailand. I was contacted by the Red Cross yesterday. I told them of my travels. They advised that I will not be able to donate again until a year has passed. I look forward to donating again.

It's a wonderful thing to donate blood. Also, you can become an organ donor. I am too old to donate blood now, but on my driver's license I am an organ donor. I already donated a couple of my fingers years ago...
