Now I know we're all on here getting healthy and junk, but I think it's important to keep others in mind as well. THAT BEING SAID: INOVA blood services is horribly low on blood. This time of year apparently depletes their stock supply pretty terribly. They are in need of all blood types except AB+ so if you are in the area, please consider making a whole blood donation.

You can find a drive or donation site near you by visiting: https://www.inovabloodsaves.org/index.cfm?group=op

THANKS ALL!!

    I went to the American Red Cross this past time, but will be going to INOVA in March when I can give again. :)

    I very much prefer Inova. The staff is ALWAYS so nice and the blood goes directly the the hospitals right here where we live (and just think! if you donate and the need blood, there's a chance you'd get your own back! hehe)

    thanks for being a life saver!

    FYI: My work (in Reston) is doing a blood drive with the American Red Cross on Wednesday May 16th from 0900 to 1400 at our office. If anyone is interested, let me know and I can get you the information.
