You’re not the only one who is ineligible.

You can still spread the word.

@Mr_PBH

You can still spread the word.

I think I will.

Decades here and I can’t donate blood still. It niggles me but what can I do.

[Mr_PBH]

Trust the science, my boney arse.

[keoni]

Yes, I log in here once in a blue moon.

I don’t know what blood type I have. How do I donate blood, and if its the right blood type, send it to Dragonbones?

How do I donate blood

Donating blood in Taiwan

Rick Monday emailed this out to friends and posted it on his Facebook feed this morning. I spoke to him about getting the word out. I’ll find time to go - I hope you can, too Next week foreign residents are donating blood to say thanks to Taiwan’s health care system for keeping us safe. The media attention should result in overall blood donation to help alleviate the shortage of blood. The center at Fu Xing North Rd. #69 - 5th floor is across the street from exit 7 of the MRT stops servicing …

what the op needs is platelets with the right blood type. you need a record of whole blood donation to do your first platelets donation.

Just donate blood at your local hospital. It’ll go into the common pool; every little bit helps. Direct donations aren’t possible.

Nice. You might be a match. Go for it!

Just donate blood at your local hospital.

dragonbones also said this, but can you donate blood at a hospital? there might be a temporal or permanent blood donation bus nearby hospital, or some donation station might be in or next to a hospital, but i have thought you have to go to blood donation stations including buses, not a hospital. correct me, if I’m wrong.

[tempogain]

Hmm, I was just going on what was said above. You may be right

There’s info here, including links to maps with locations

Dragonbones is gone.

What the heck?!? Sounded like he was on the mend.

[Mr_PBH]

That is heartbreaking.

Kent had been helping me and my wife’s family prepare for my brother in law’s impending chemo and blood transfusion and post operative care to combat his leukemia. He was simply amazing and the amount of information he gave us was incredibly valuable. He did it from his hospital bed and said he was happy to have something to do.

I was humbled mostly and left speechless, and he told me again and again that he would beat this. The man never let the darkness in. I was happy to joke around a bit and get a lol out of him, even then.

To Dragonbabe and the boys: I am so sorry for your incredible loss, but I thought you should know that this is the kind of man he was.
