Florida Blood Center: Donated Blood is used within 36 Hours

As some of you know last week I was giving my "
Hero Story" to the Florida Blood Center. Originally they were going to come to my house for the interview and taping, but since I was due to donate blood we decided to meet at the local blood center in Royal Palm Beach FL.

I arrived a few minutes early for my appointment, but I didn't have to wait long for Nancy and her crew to arrive from Orlando. Nancy is a reporter with the Florida Blood Centers who has been creating "Hero Stories"for the past four months. These stories are about donors who give blood and patients who receive blood. ( Donor Stories & Patient Stories).

As I filled out all of my paperwork Nancy and I started talking about donating blood and the incredible stories she has heard. During this conversation I learned that donated blood is used within 36 hours. Yes, you read that correctly donated blood is used within 36 hours. I was completely unaware of the blood shortage and I myself will make more of an effort to donate every 56 days, not 57th or 58th.

Save a Life today by donating an hour of your time and blood.
