When I gave birth to my fifth child, Jeremiah, on April 1, 2009, I suddenly had no blood pressure and passed out.

After receiving adrenaline, I regained consciousness. But soon after, I went downhill again. I was given two blood transfusions, and soon regained strength and health.

I fully believe that that blood transfusion saved my life, so I will always be willing to donate and encourage others to do the same!
