Donation of blood is heroic as it serve the purpose of protecting an ailing person, a fellow being, or an accident victim or those who want to survive. A great development is that our society is showing some sympathy among those who are in need of blood. In one hour’s time, a person can donate one unit of blood that can be separated into three individual components that could save multiple lives. From one unit of blood, red blood cells can be separated for use in and medical, obstetrical, trauma or surgical patients. Plasma, the liquid part of blood, is administered to patients with clotting problems. The third component of blood, platelets, clot the blood when cuts or other open wounds occur, and are often used in cancer and transplant patients. Blood donation truly is a “gift of life” that a healthy individual can give to others in their community who are sick or injured.
In a recent study supported by the National Blood Foundation, more than 5,000 individuals who were current blood donors at the time or who had given blood in the past were asked why they donate blood. Nearly three-quarters of the respondents said that they give blood to help others. Respondents also said that giving blood makes them feel good about themselves; supports their local communities and hospitals; supports their community culture; and “pays back” society for the times when they or their families have needed blood transfusions in the past. For all of these reasons and more, donating blood is a good idea.
