Pontiac Solstice Forum - View Single Post - IMPORTANT: Organ Donation

I am registered as an organ donor (on my Ohio Driver's license)

I am also a bone marrow donor

and I have been giving blood over 40 years now.

Not to preach...but donating blood is something you can do when ALIVE and can be done many times a year.
At all my clinics i notice that the majority of donors are over 40...and a lot are over 50 and 60.

What I'm not noticing in my area is the young 'uns.

Now maybe they go to high school or university clinics...but when I talk to the technicians
they tell me..."NO...the kids just don't seem to want to do it"

So as well as registering to be an organ donor after you die..

How about being a blood donor while you are still alive.

You can save many lives while you are still alive.

And the needle doesn't hurt as much as a saturday morning hangover.
