My wife is O-, universal

I hope O- finally is of some benefit. Usually signifies bad things. We may be the universal donor, but we can only receive O-. Good luck finding THAT type in a crisis.

You guys/gals are in high demand. Many times over the years, including during 9-11, calls go out for type O- blood donors to donate. Wife donated many, many units over the years until they tagged her a diabetic.

She had to have blood once after bad automobile accident (needed four units, iirc) and after a rough delivery. It was always available, which leads me to believe most blood labs like to keep a good supply on the shelves - because it can be given to most everyone for one, and there is no substitute for you guys/gals currently?
