Please be an organ donor. Our young friend Annika just had a transplant last night, and her mom Moreena has been writing about it. Anni pulled through the operation, but it is still touch and go. It is her sweet sister Frankie's birthday today, too.
I can't even think about what they all are going through, except -- I must. It could be me and mine.
And please donate blood. No, it probably won't help Annika directly; but it will help someone else. Someone whose family is pulling for them. One day, the family needing the blood might be any of ours.
ETA: Please, pass it on if you feel moved to do so.

You know I rarely comment even though I enjoy reading from the whine list.
I've given 8 gallons so far and I always feel quite angelic afterwards.
... it's a strange feeling, but I confess I enjoy it.
I hope Annika and her family all pull through this with flying colors.
((( FC ))) so glad to see you here! it is terrific you are a long-time donor! 8 gallons, brother, is a LOT. sending you some virtual angel wings.
Thank you for posting this, Kathy A!
I'm going tomorrow to donate platelets.
They won't let me give blood, but I'm an organ donor. My mom is alive because of organ donation.
