Blood Donations
We've had a lot of offers for blood donations for Dad. He is on dialysis, and has had several blood transfusions over last 5 days...how many, unsure. We don't know how the donations work, but either way, it is the "gift of life" whether he uses it or someone else does, and I believe he will get "credits" for whatever he's already used so far. Their chart downstairs says they are REALLY low on both O+ and O- types, as well as platelet donations. So if anyone wants to donate at Methodist hospital in Dad's name, that'd be awesome, and don't worry about the blood type. Make sure to give his name. The blood donation center is in the Fondren Bldg. room 102. ALSO, they will give you FREE VALET PARKING so that it is a no-cost trip for you. Only open weekdays, I'd recommend to call in advance even though it is not necessary.

There's also a Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center where one can donate blood on 518 in Pearland TX right near the Sunrise Lakes development (between the CVS by Silverlake and Cullen). Hours and info can be found here: http://www.giveblood.org/index.php?page=pearland
I don't know if this might be more convenient for some. Marney
