Blood and Platelets

Our little rascal has turned out to be O-, a rather rare blood type. She's a universal donor but can ONLY accept O- blood. Children's Hospital allows for a direct donor program so you can give blood that will be directly banked for Abby. If you would like to help us in this way, you need to give October 7-9 at Children's Hospital. There are some other details, so contact us if you want to give. At this point, a friend of our neighbor who randomly also happens to be a family member of a dear friend has decided to give on Abby's behalf. We've never even met Cortney but we're extremely thankful. You ROCK!

The other issue is platelets -- and ANYONE can give these. Grant will be giving platelets and we need a few more people to do so as well. Again, let us know! Those of you prego and nursing moms out there -- not only can you not drink wine and eat soft cheese, but you are exempt. Whew!
