Blood. A simple word. Every single person has it. Every single person needs it to live. Without it, you die. Very straight forward.
The reason I bring this up is very personal for me. When my Dad was still alive, he was a regular donator of blood, in fact he was passionate about telling people the need to donate. One of my biggest regrets in life was never taking up this passion with him. NO MORE! This week I have booked my first ever blood donation. I am very sad that he will not be there with me physically but in my heart I will feel him with every drop I give. Thank you Dad, this first one is for you, the rest are for those who need it more than me.
For those of you who wish to join me, I am there this Saturday at 10:55 and would love to bleed with you.
Holy Trinity Catholic Church

Starts this Wednesday and goes to this Saturday.
Go to www.blood.ca and book a time.
Every three seconds someone needs blood. Just one pint of donated blood can help save as many as three people's lives. The average adult has 10 pints of blood in his or her body.
Lets spread our awesomeness to others by giving blood to those who won't live without it.
