The END is only the Beginning...

The blood drive was a success!!! Quite a few people were turned away, but we still had THIRTY successful donations today. That equals 90 lives that Ethan inspired people to save.

HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!

Ethan will live on in the lives of the people touched by his blood drive. Everything has officially come full circle. BIG thank you to everyone who donated, tried to donate, or will donate in the future. Blood donation is a completely selfless and noble act and I commend each and every one of you.

THANK YOU FOR HONORING OUR SON.

This blood drive was all the more special since Niki also has FVII Deficiency. She has already received fresh frozen plasma and had a blood transfusion before she was discharged from the hospital. All of you saw how healthy & beautiful she is. She is here today thanks to God, Ethan, caring doctors, loving nurses, Novo 7, AND from the donated plasma and blood she received in the hospital.

John and I will be taking a trip to Blood Centers in a few weeks when I am finally able to donate. If anyone wishes to join us, please let me know. :-)

And for those of you who donated, you've been entered for a raffle on a 50 inch plasma TV. If you win it, let me know. Don't forget to donate every 56 days!!! The end is only the beginning!
