Still roughing it out on Rhoads 6 at Penn, hoping that my blood counts start heading north before my frustration requires a room with padded walls.
I am putting out another call for donor blood. I am all out of bags after yesterday’s transfusion.
So, if you are either A or O type, have not had mono, Epstein-Barr, hepatitis, any strange STDs, or cooties, I want your blood.
Local Philly blood works best. If you are eligible, please email me and I will help set things up. The sooner, the better. Peace!
Here is the link to general Red Cross eligibility guidelines:

UPDATE: My latest counts are heading up, and I am feeling better. Unfortunately, I am stuck here until my counts are up to a certain level. So the wait begins…

After my strange travels around these states of yours, I will be happy to donate blood for you. I promise, my cooties are only from very clean local farm animals from my most beautiful country (and my sister).
