brianb1944 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I am 'A' rh neg is that compatible >that is to say does the rh factor make a differance ???? .. If it is ok is there anyway of donating blood in Pattaya and getting to her?? I am A negative, but, because I am over 60 years old, Thai hospitals will not allow me to donate. I have tried responding to a couple of similar requests in the past, and been told by donor centres, "not possible, too old". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon7867763 Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 I am A negative, and I will go on Friday to donate blood. At least I have something that somebody wants? I have to wonder, though: Are these specific calls all for donors real? This will be the third blood donor ad that I responded to where someone was calling out for a donor with a specific blood type. Is this the normal practice these days, to call out for specific blood types via social media? The other two times I donated for a needy young girl, someone telephoned me from the hospital a few hours later to say thanks, the girl has used your blood. I think donating blood is very important, we should all do it, and if someone is making up stories like this gets people in the door to donate, then I think it's perfectly fine to do. Again, I'm not saying that this isn't a legitimate call for help, it just made me wonder... there is a photo of the girl, and Newbie says that the family was there to thank donors. This is a genuine case , how could it not be ? the foto is real.If you can make it that would be great.Please do.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon7867763 Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 From what I can calculate we need about 8 more donors and then we should have reached the 30 required that should be enough to see her up to and through her operation.Please keep it coming and thank you so much to everyone.

timmyp Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I just got back. I feel lighter, good to shed that unneeded blood. I told them that I was there for the little girl, and staff knew right away. So I guess they need 7 more donors, huh? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chao Lao Beach Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) This has been a great response. My Thai step son has been battling Leukemia for 6.5 years and we hope to be able to stop radiation soon which is exciting, like we can start living again. He still has spinal fluid sucked out and replaced with radiation and daily zapps but he looks like a normal little boy. In that time there has been two x 11 month stays in hospital and many months in intensive care and isolation which was very stressful. We did not have the problem of rare blood required, but I can not express in words the sheer volume of daily blood transfusions he required for months on end. I just want people to understand that it really does make a difference, he would be 100% dead now without that donated blood and it is ongoing for months when it was needed. Spending a couple of years daily in a kids cancer ward is, well humbling. So please, be bothered to donate again when you can. You really are a silent hero to many families and directly save lives.

pxlgirl Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Too bad I don't have the required blood type, otherwise I'd be on my way to donate tomorrow. Good luck with all and lets hope the little girl will win the battle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with all and lets hope the little girl will win the battle! But there are many other little girls in the same ward that need a huge amount of blood every day to get through the intensive critical stage that takes several months. Please make the effort I remember that the hospital was scrambling to get get blood over a Songkran 3 years ago, just to keep the kids going. Please be bothered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Snark Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Just a suggestion for everyone. Consider donating blood at least once. Good merit making and you get to know what your blood type is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon7867763 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 I just heard from a Thai friend that last week it was on the TV , they went to the hospital and showed Nanapat and spoke with her mother and made an appeal for blood. I started the post here about 1 month ago and also made a facebook campaign and its amazing how the word spreads and amazing the kind reaction of the people.Many of you went to give blood and also spread the word and now ends up with an appeal on the television. I will end this post and get back with a new one when/if more blood is needed.Thanks to all who have contribuited in any way,together we have raised enough blood for nearly 3 months and hopefu;lly it's still coming in.If anyone is still thinking to give , please do it because it will probably still be needed later on and if not it will go to someone who needs it.Thailand is desperately short of negative blood. If anyone wants to know about her progress in the future , please send me a PM and I will keep you posted. Thanks again to all ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
