Angela Judd knows firsthand the impact blood donation can have, and she donates to help little ones who are counting on an extra miracle. Angela’s daughter was diagnosed with para-influenza, pneumonia and RSV during a stay at Children’s Hospital at only 14 months old. After contracting the RSV she was in need of blood transfusions. Her immune system had grown so weak and so over loaded that she wasn't oxygenating properly, and her blood pressure was dropping. She was a total mystery to the doctors and they weren’t sure if she was going to make it through the night. Luckily after her third blood transfusion her condition stabilized.
Angela wants the community to know that through blood donation with Unyts you can help someone right here in WNY live another day, just like her daughter. When it comes to donating blood there is nothing to be afraid of. Blood can be a miracle for somebody else in need. Angela says you should always pay it forward as you never know who your blood may save someday.
