Blood Donation

Our club donated a bottle of O blood on January 6. The patient was a 72-years-old woman. She need the blood because of the leakage of blood capillary from the brain. She lives in Htee Tan, Kyi Myin Dine Township.

On January 6th 8:00 am in the morning, a teacher from B.E.H.S 6 Ahlone contacted the club and requested to donate the blood for her mother. The club searched an O type blood donor. Around 11:00 pm, we arrived to the Yangon Hospital. Later, we met the patient guardian and took the required document to proceed at National blood department. There were few staffs since it was Saturday. As a result of it, there were more of blood donors waiting for blood test. The donor was tested for the blood type, hemoglobin on his turn. The blood sample was sent to the laboratory to check for the disease. The patient guardian treated the donor with lunch while waiting for the result. The result from the lab was out at 2:00 pm. We waited until our turn to donate blood. It was finished at 3:00 pm. We sent the donor back to his home and reached back to the club at 4:00 pm in the evening.
