a Blog about blood...well not really..well kindDa!!

18/6/2019

So if you follow this page and my story at all, you will know I have a long running story with my health, not least, I suffered a chronic blood disorder in my late teens & early twenties and that at this time a daily platelet transfusion saved me!

So many people are here still because of the selflessness of others...those that give blood really do change and save lives and I for one am so very grateful x

So imagine my surprise and pleasure when a local GAA rising star is interviewed about his heart condition and life saving blood transfusion in front of MY artwork, artwork that deals with issues such as overcoming life's obstacles and hurdles...it seemed so appropriate...and Im so happy for this young man that he too was offered the gift of life through blood transfusion.

if you can, please consider becoming a blood donor, you will never know the good you do x
