Warren's a platelet donor

NZ Blood 300+ Donor 13.06.12 26
I give platelets and when you get a phone call to say you are a match for someone in need, it really brings it home, what you do and why you do it. I lie on a bed for a couple of hours to help someone who is lying on a bed somewhere else, for a very different reason.
