Blood Donation

At February 5th 2008, our Raven Blood Donor group donated a bottle of type A blood to a patient from Bahose Hospital in Ahlone Township. The patient was a 61-years-old high-school teacher who lives in Kyee Myin Tine School Road. She had asked for blood at January 29th when she was going into operation for her Anal Cancer. Now, after the surgery, her blood pressure was low and still needed blood for the recuperation process.

At 8pm on February 4th, the patient's family asked our BDC to donate a bottle of type A blood the next day. So, we were able to search for the donor since then. Our BDC and the donor went to the Bahose Hospital at 8 am in the morning on 5th February. As usual, the procedure that must be done before giving blood had to be carried out and was usual we had to wait for some hours there for the results to come out. At 11:45 am, the results came out and therefore, we were only able to start the blood donation at 12 noon. After that, our Raven BDC treated and sent the donor back home.
