They had a number on the bottom of the screen, but it's busy. I figure donating some blood is the least I can do.

ABC just said that blood level is at a crisis, everyone go out and donate today, and if not today, then tomorrow

9/11/2001 1:33:43 PM

I'm not sure if I can donate blood (recently stopped medication).
I wish I could though.

9/11/2001 1:34:59 PM

yeah, i'm not sure i can either, last time i couldnt due to low iron, but i am most definently gonna try

9/11/2001 1:36:03 PM

I probably can't either. I'm getting over pneumonia and on medication. Plus my arm is already all bruised up where they fucked up taking a blood culture.

9/11/2001 1:36:58 PM

i wish i could...but i am on asthma medication...please everyone that can please do...i feel terrible that i can't help...someone go help for me

Donate Blood:
The American Red Cross is asking people who want to give blood to call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE. They say they need O+ and O- blood in particular.

Rex Hospital will be accepting donations until 12 a.m. at Rex Blood Services Donor Center 2709 Blue Ridge Road in Raleigh.

Rex's Bloodmobile is also accepting donations at Price Waterhouse in Cary, 1300 Crescent Green Dr. until 3 p.m.

9/11/2001 1:39:12 PM

O+ right here...I'll have to go do that...who wants to go with me? I'm taking a shower and going to get my truck from Gorman...let me know

9/11/2001 1:39:18 PM

how do you know if you can give blood? I never done it before but I want to help out ... also have a tattoo, that shouldn't matter should it?

9/11/2001 1:40:39 PM

yeah, tattoos are no problem, especially in may it should be healed by now. i have two and they said i could have gave blood a few months ago except for the fact i just had immunizations

9/11/2001 1:40:57 PM

excellent

9/11/2001 1:41:22 PM

okay how about this: i don't know my blood type. does that matter?

9/11/2001 1:41:58 PM

I'm glad to finally figure out where to give it. I called the cary and Raleigh offices, but I've been getting a busy signal the whole time. I'm on my way over there. If that's isn't a good reason to skip class, I don't know what is.

9/11/2001 1:44:36 PM

nope... they'll take it all.. but O is the universal donor so it's the best

9/11/2001 1:44:50 PM

Susie, I don't think it matters what your blood type is. I'm sure they would take whatever blood they can get.

9/11/2001 1:44:52 PM

can someone take me with them?

9/11/2001 1:45:07 PM

no suzie, it doesn't. O is the best b/c they can give it to anyone. but they need all kinds

9/11/2001 1:45:18 PM

they will take any type of blood

9/11/2001 1:45:23 PM

okay thanks guys

9/11/2001 1:47:58 PM

9/11/2001 1:48:22 PM

9/11/2001 1:49:58 PM

listening to the radio right now...

A Lady with the RED CROSS is saying this:

- if you already have an appt to give blood, go
- if you don't, make one for the next couple of days
- if you don't, you won't be able to give today (too many people donating)

9/11/2001 1:50:09 PM

yah... it's too soon
