Your experiences gave turned what could have been another run-of-the-mill "give blood" announcement into a poignant and relevant appeal to the heart. I believe your words and actions had a moving effect that could never be attained with entire stacks of OBI informational flyers. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing your message and your life with us!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
