Did you know that every two seconds a patient somewhere in a hospital needs a blood transfusion, I learned this from the Red Cross people when I decided to start donating last year? This means that while I told you that last sentence at least two people received a transfusion. Kind of crazy to think about, right? Well now that I have you thinking about it I’m going to tell you all about who can be a donor, and why you should become not only a blood donor but an organ donor as well. Blood and organ donors save lives every day and without them medical treatments would not be possible; therefore, people who are able should become donors. According to National Health service an organ donor is someone who voluntarily gives an organ to another person
