Say thank you!
I can’t thank you enough. Your donation of platelets is literally keeping me alive. I have been diagnosed with a bone marrow disorder. I will be starting treatment next week with the hope that my bone marrow can start working again. In the meantime, I need periodic platelet and blood transfusions to keep me going. I have myself given blood scores of times in the past and never dreamed I would one day need transfusions. Thank you, thank you, thank you, f rom the bottom of my heart.

Hello to our generous and giving donor.We are so thankful for you.
Your decision to donate had a significant impact on my family and myself as your blood helped save my life after a traumatic child birth and allowed me to become a first-time mother. We are grateful for you!
Thank you for your generous donation. I found myself in the ER this week as a result of critically low hemoglobin and I had absolutely NO idea. I had a routine blood test for my physical and got a call from my doctor to go to the ER immediately. Once there, I was hooked up with a pint of your blood and today I feel so energetic and completely different than I did when I went in! Thank you so very much! And, my family thanks you!
For some donors, the journey will continue when they receive a message from the recipient of their donation.
Dear Kind Donor,your donation was used to help my son.His platelets were very low and your donation gave us more time to spend with him. It was discovered that his condition was much more serious and we did lose him. But those last days that we had with him in the hospital and hospice were possible because of donations like yours.All his family and friends thank you greatly for your selfless gift.
Wanted to express my gratitude for your whole blood donation literally saved my life.
My story. I am a Paramedic in a trauma center. I am alive because of blood donors like you! I suffered from a gunshot wound that almost took my life. The first night in the hospital I had 18 units of blood products. I had more the following days and multiple surgeries. I wish I could meet the people that gave blood for me. So, finding this card today I wanted to tell you thank you for giving blood, you saved a life today.
