Blood Donation

The Raven BDC donated a bottle of O type blood at October 28th. The patient who needed blood was the grandfather of the member Love2Hate from Native Myanmar Forum's Wave of Light Social Work's group. The patient lives in Pazuntaung Township and he's 82-years-old. He was admitted at Asia Royal Hospital for liver disease. Raven BDC helped donate blood to this patient once before.

The patient's guardian called Raven BDC asking if we could provide a bottle of O type blood the next day, which was October 27th. So, we searched for a volunteer donor and replied that we would be able to help them. At October 28th, 9 AM in the morning, Raven BDc and the donor went to Asia Royal Hospital. At 9:30 Am in the morning, the sample blood was taken from the donor for testing. The blood results from the lab came out a few minutes after 11:00 AM. As soon as we got the results, the blood transfusion started. It was done by 12:30 PM at noon. The donor was sent home by us and we reached back to Raven BDC domain at 1 PM.
