To be a life-saving hero you don't have to appear in movies or TV shows and you don't even have to have any superpowers. The only thing that you need to become one is a courage. To be more accurate, I am speaking about blood donation.
Yes, something so simple and common as blood donation is super important for every medical care. We need blood during operations, during many treatments and much more. Therefore every drop counts! Yet still less and less people tend to go donate blood. And this is such a pity. Of course I respect the personal view about blood donation, however if you can be someone who is capable of saving lives of others, I think it is such a shame to not be this one. Recently I experienced my first blood donation and I am so happy I did that. I felt amazing, knowing that my few minutes "under the needle" can save long years for someone else. All in all, blood donation is free and only up to you, it costs nothing. And I reckon this is quite a bargain, nothing in exchange for human life. So if you haven't donated blood yet and if you want to help somebody, pretty much without any effort, give it a try. It definitely will pay off. |
