“Silent heroes.” That’s how Blaze Eppinger, who has had sickle cell disease since birth, describes people who donate blood—and you could be among them. Sickle cell is a lifetime battle and the odds of leading a healthy life depend in part on whether hospitals have adequate inventories of the right blood types.

As a child, Eppinger would get blood transfusions at least monthly. Today, at 28, he still needs nine or 10 transfusions a year—but it’s not always possible. “When blood is not available for me, I have to stay in the hospital longer, basically fighting a sickle cell crisis,” which, he explained, is very painful.

“To my fellow millennials,” he said, “your blood donation can be what’s needed to save a sickle cell patient. Having blood available for everyone who needs it is so important for people like me who fight sickle cell.”

“When I receive the blood donations that I need and my numbers go up, I feel like I’m back to myself,” Eppinger added. “I don’t feel the pain. I don’t feel drained. It’s like putting gas in the car or batteries in your remote. I’m energized!”

Are you the missing type? Schedule your next blood donation today by using the Blood Donor App, by visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767).

The American Red Cross Missing Types Campaign was established to help people like Blaze.
