Nice of you to post this story...
I thought O was the most common blood type?
100% burned? 2nd & 3rd degree?

I'm O- and I have given blood alot. How can I help?
To: wallcrawlr
I gave platelets today at the Red Cross and I asked them if people in other areas of the country can donate blood for this child. The answer is that they can go to any Red Cross Center and donate the blood, but one step has to be done first. The boys doctor has to contact that local chapter of the Red Cross ask them for the blood you're donating. Once that's done they set up a special donation and it gets shipped out to them. If more people who have that blood type want to donate they are also handled by that call to that local chapter. In this case if all the O- people in the San Fernando Valley wanted to donate blood for this child the one call from the Doctor would take care of it.
The article doesn't give the Doctors name but I'll bet the source of this article can get it if people who have the proper blood type want to donate blood for him.
