I figured NWR might get more traffic than Parenting...

Dooodles had her baby three weeks ago, he's very premature and has a lot of problems (infections, breathing, you name it)

CJ needs a blood transfusion... here is a link to the post.

Help CJ (Dooodles preemie)

If anyone is O+ (O positive), please email her.

Thanks!

I believe it has to be an exact match, it is the universal donor and can donate to all types, but can only receive from its own exact type. I just wrote on the board, i am O+ and CMV-, hopefully she will let me know!

I was diagnosed with Epstein-Barr virus a few years back and I will go through 'active' times with it once or twice a year...I wonder if that knocks me out?

it knocks you out and i am knocked out too due to medical issues.

Are you sure it knocks you out? Because I got diagnosed with Epstein-Barr a few months ago and the doctor said there's no real risks and that more than half of adults have it and don't even know they do....if you find that it does affect your ability to give blood, pls let me know bc i have never heard of this. Wish I had O and could help. to all of you that are willing!

I fmd her as well, I am CMV free and o +, but with all my health scares I dont know if that would knock me aout as well, but if she checks I would be more then willing to donate.
