Urgent Appeal for Blood Donors

**architect** · July 24th, 2006 08:35 PM

Am posting an appeal on behalf of a friend, Francis Tuazon -

His mom, Mercedita Tuazon, is presently confined at the ICU of the Amang Rodriguez Hospital in Marikina and urgently needs blood donation (A+). Actually any blood type is accepted as the blood bank will do a swap.

For those interested in helping, you may contact Francis directly at 0916-531-7087.

Any help (and prayers) will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just bumping it up. The family really needs help. Sorry.

I'm sorry but I can't help.. I just got my wisdom tooth removed.

Anyways.. the prayers of the tsikot family will be with Mrs. Tuazon.

I can donate 450ml of blood. I have my red cross card with me, if it's honored in that particular hospital.

You can pick it(red cross card) up from South Metro Manila. I'll provide details to Francis.

God bless!

Just wanted to say thanks to all those who responded. I am sure the family appreciates your thoughtfulness and concern.

Best regards.

architect: Kindly double check the number that you provided. I text'ed Francis but no response as of this time (about half an hour has already elapsed). Someone needs to pick up the card from my work area here in South MM. Thanks.

Me too!

Did you know that you could save your blood for future use? National Kidney Hospital, and other hospitals, has a "Blood Assurance Plan", where you could donate your blood at least every after 3 months. In case you or any of your family member needs a blood, you could immediately withdraw from them up to the quantity you have donated.

I was doing this when I was still fit to donate.
