Blood Donation!

Hey all,
For those who don't know yet, I am currently working (training) at Pantai Hospital. Found out many things about the general health of the society around KL and Malaysia as a whole.

Well, currently the hospital and even PDN (Pusat Darah Negara) are facing shortage of blood type A and O Rh Positive. So, if you have time or just feel like saving a life, please donate your blood to any hospitals or directly to PDN.

There are obvious advantages in donating your blood. First of all, you would be able to help many people in need of your blood, after operation or haemorrage which causes anaemia. You will also be able to help yourself, by 'renewing' the blood cells in your body. So, its a win-win situation here!

Before donating blood, make sure you check all these:

+You must weigh at least 45kg or above
+Do not consume any alcohol in 24 hours
+Do not have any infection ie. sorethroat
+Must have enough sleep the night before, at least 6 hours of sleep

For the rest of the points, if you're interested, you can check at http://www.redcross.org/

And guess what? Baby went to the hospital where i work to donate blood. Thank you sweety!So people, start saving some lives now!

P/S: Stay tuned for my post bout my work plus some nice pictures =P
