Bindery David and April Sykes, Publishers Letters to the Editor Donate blood June 13 To the Editor: Please take the time to present this to our fellow Morrow County residents. The summer is near and school is out, it is time for fun in the sun. Un fortunately it is also a time when automobile and farming accidents nearly double. The American Red Cross needs blood and lots of it. The Bloodmobile will be here on Wednesday June 13, from 1 to 5:30 p.m. Please take the time to give the gift of your blood. Blood cannot be manufactured or imported from a foreign country. It can only come from you. The availability of a unit of blood can often determine the outcome of so meone’s surgery or a car accident. Blood is something that we cannot wait for when we need it, it simply has to be there. It may slightly hurt your arm for a moment but if it’s not there for someone it will hurt them more. The Red Cross will also be draw ing blood for those who wish to be a part of the National Bone Marrow network. Bone Marrow is used to help treat victims of blood related diseases. Of the thousands who could benefit from a marrow transplant, nearly 70 percent cannot find a suitable match within their families. These patients need to find unrelated donors-people willing to come to the assistance of someone they likely will never meet. As the pool of potential marrow donors in creases, so do the odds of survival for the thousands of patients in need. There is about a one in 20,000 chance of finding a matching donor Clearly, hundreds of lives could be saved if more people added their names to the list of potential marrow donors. The requirements for bone mar row donors are few. They must be between the ages of 18 and 55. Able to pass a physical examination and not have any heart or lung problems. At our first step level here in Hepp ner, candidates will simply donate a small tube of blood. These special tubes will be transported directly to the University Hospital in Portland. They will test the blood for your bone marrow type (HLA-Human Leukocyte Antigen). That informa tion will be added to the list of other potential donors across the country. When a person in need of transplant matches your basic HLA. you (the donor) will be contacted for more testing in an attempt to find an exact match. Please consider being a bone marrow donor. You could even save the life of a fellow Morrow County resident. So on the afternoon of Wednes day, June 13, take a few minutes and come down to the Heppner Elks Lodge. You’ll feel good about help ing others and we’ll give you a cookie, juice and discount coupon for Kate’s Pizza and Murray’s Drug. If you have any questions about be ing a donor give me a call. Sincerely, (s) Lori E.
