Blood Donation

Our club donated a bottle of A type blood on 15 of March. This time, the patient was a 17-years-old boy who has been hospitalized at the blood department of the Yangon Hospital because of the leukemia. He lives in extended new town, Myin Chan.

Around 2:30 pm, the patient guardians themselves came to the club and asked for help in getting a bottle of A type blood. There was an A type blood donor already at that time. Therefore, we went to the Yangon Hospital together with them. Since being Saturday, we had to wait quite a long time to have tested for the disease and hemoglobin due to the insufficient staffs. The result from the lab was out around 4:30 pm. Since there is no problem, the donation was started before 5:00 pm. At 5:00 pm, the donation was finished, the club treated the donor and sent off home at 6:00 pm.
