GIVE BLOOD ..SAVE LIFE ..

Welcome Back !

The purpose of this post is to encourage people to donate blood to save precious life .So here are the few facts to begin with;

a) Did you know every two seconds someone needs blood ?
b) 1 Pint (443 ML) of blood can Save up to 3 lives 
c) More than 5 millions patients need blood in U.S every year. (Then imagine about India,which has more population than U.S)

India ranks second highest populated country in the world but we still have shortage of blood because of shortage of donors . Every year our nation needs 4 Core units of blood out of which only a  40 Lakh units of blood are available.

This is not the case in India alone this is happening every where in the world. It is time for us to wake up and start donating blood to save life.

So what is stopping us to donate blood ? Here are the few reasons..

a) Most of them never thought of donating blood.
b) Rest of them afraid of needles

I guess you might be in one of those two reasons..Probably the first reason ? if so then it is not your fault, Yes,      You heard that right !

I firmly believe it is the responsibility of  Government, Educational Institution and Parents to educate & encourage there children’s and young men to donate blood. Seriously in that aspect Government as well as Educational institutes has miserably failed which has resulted in this shortage.

o being said that we as an adult can change that and bring awareness to people about blood donation. So what are you waiting for ?   Go head! donate your blood and save life Smile Also please encourage your friends, co-workers & dear ones to donate blood.

Here is a Simple calculation: 1 Pint ( 443 ML ) saves 3 life , so let us say every year you give 3 Pint which saves 9 life’s.

Afraid of needles ?  Please read this true story and see if your still afraid of needles or innocent baby’s life ?

This incident happened in one of the famous hospital in India, Young child probably  3 or 4 years old admitted for Brain Tumor and operation needs to be performed as early as possible to save that baby’s life. In order to perform Brain tumor operation you need Minimum 4 or 5 pint of Blood but guess what there was shortage of A positive blood which has resulted in postponing  the operation..Finally we where able to arrange 3 people with A positive blood group. Many thanks to my co-workers and their friends who responded immediately.

If they would have afraid of needles ? or anything as matter of fact ?  Imagine the consequences .. So are you still  afraid of needles then please like here Overcome-a-Fear-of-Needles

It’s my firm belief that this post would have at least made you to think for a minute about donating blood, if it is yes then mostly probably you will be donating the blood. So Thank you for that Smile
Once again thank you for reading this post and of course a special thanks in advance for donating your blood.
Wishes,
Sasi

Awesome Sasi, that is the rock solid TRUTH!!. Education, awareness on blood donation. These are the two main things that we as INDIANS lack and that is causing the shortage of something that is a life saver, BLOOD. I agree that the govt. is doin its bit.. but its not enough. People need to know that donating blood improves their health, and so many other benefits of giving blood. And most importantly.. the feeling of saving a life.. sooo much better that "getting high" .
