Donations…

This week’s Friday Five is all about donations, and NOT of the monetary type either!

1. What blood group are you?
Type O Negative. I am the universal donor!

2. Do you give blood? Why/why not?
I haven’t for a while. I have in the past, though. I’m nothing like KC. She doesn’t have the sticker or the T-Shirt, but I imagine she’s given over 10 gallons in her lifetime.

3. Are you listed as an organ donor? Again, why/why not?
No. I just haven’t done it. I don’t know that my organs are in all that great of shape to donate?!

4. Would you donate an organ or other part of your body (eg bone marrow) while still alive?
Absolutely. I don’t know if all the readers here know, but KC’s brother is 7 years out of a bone marrow transplant from one of her other brothers. He was featured on this year’s Bone Marrow Transplant Calendar cover (he is the blond in the blue cycling outfit).

5. Would you consider leaving your body to medical science? Or maybe just parts of your body?
No, not really. Again, this is one that I haven’t really thought a lot about. Yeah, I’m getting up there and yeah, I SHOULD be thinking about things like this, but I don’t.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time. It's like trying to take a picture with the lens cap on.
