True reports on the works of the Red Cross
by leading Canadian writers
by Claire Wallace
There is a man in
Canada who has the
blood of seven total strangers in
his veins. Maybe you wince at
that idea. He doesn't. Without it,
he would be dead.
Two years ago he was seriously
injured in a crash. He received
desperate head injuries, and a
delicate operation was imperative.
But shock and loss of blood had so
weakened him that he couldn't
have survived one. If seven
strangers had not stepped in.
They were Canadian men and
women who had each given a blood
donation to the Canadian Red
Cross Blood Transfusion Service.
When the doctors called for blood
to save .the life of the accident
victim, it was' the blood of those
seven which pulled him through.
"Were you one of them?"
Today, he is a healthy, happy,
useful citizen of Victoria, British
Columbia. The only thing that
marks him as different from the
average man is a rather searching
look that sometimes comes into his
eyes as he walks along the street.
For he often thinks of the seven
who 'saved his life and wonders
who they are. As he looks into a
stranger's face, he silently asks:
"Were you one of them? If so, I
thank you from my heart."
Similarly, the mother who gave
birth to twins and would have died
except for blood transfusions . ,
the baby so anaemic at birth he
could be kept alive only by donated
blood ... the maimed .. the sick
the olds—all those who owe
their lives to blood transfusions
say: "Thanks, unknown friend,"
Free blood for Canadian hospitals
The Red Cross Blood Transfusion
Service plans, as soon as possible,
to extend whole blood and plasma
free to all patients needing it, in
hospitals across Canada. Already,
two provinces—British Columbia
and Alberta—provide this life-
saving service. Last year, Alberta
and British Columbia distributed
21,044 bottles of whole blood and
2,364 bottles of plasma, resulting
in the saving of many lives.
But it takes money as well as blood
to save these lives, . Remember
this, as the Canadian Red Cross
appeals to you now for funds.
Give generously. A life may
depend upon your
donation.
Red Cross Services include: Blood Transfusion, Outpost Hos-
pitals, did to Sick and Disabled Veterans, Treatment for
Crippled Children, Disaster" Relief, Nutrition Services, Home
Nursing Courses, Swimming and Water Safety, etc.
The work of mercy never
ends... Give generously to
tlee CANADIAN RED CROS.
