Blood Donation

I've been getting questions about blood donation, so I have done my best to do some research on the subject.

Josh's oncologist said that we do not need to donate "in Josh's name" because it is important to simply keep the levels of blood in the bank high. So, really anyway that you donate will be great! Ways to donate:

Go to the United Blood Services webpage and book an appintment on-line: http://www.unitedbloodservices.org/index.asp

Donate through the American Red Cross by visiting this page: https://www.givelife.org
or by calling 1-800-GIVELIFE (1-800-448-3543)
or, if you are in Tucson, visit this webpage: http://www.tucson-redcross.org/GivingBlood/index.html

You can also donate at the many blood drives going on around town. I don't know of any personally, but if anyone knows of one, or would like to run one, let me know and I can get the information out to the webpage.

Don't forget to email us if you donate! Thanks!
