Food before they prepped and got me ready for transfusion. Brad aka the B was with me through this all support wise. Transfusion went good. First time ever having one. Then they kept me overnight upstairs here in the ICU for observation to be safe. Transfusion all worked for one bag of type O+ blood

All along the way we've arrived at some sort of position where some things are allowed but not others

So if we apply this position, how does supervised safe blood transfusion of one's OWN blood differ from those things? Again, I am not advocating that. I'm pointing out there's no real good reason

Somewhat ironically I got a letter a few years back (after I'd been donating for a while) saying I wasn't allowed to any more, precisely because I'd had that transfusion back in 1988, when they weren't screening for CJD. Think I should go back and query it, see if I'm considered safe yet!

2/ In 1930 Landsteiner won the Nobel Prize for Medicine for his discovery of the main human blood types (A, B and O), published in 1901, and for his development of the ABO system of blood typing which enabled blood transfusion to become a safe medical procedure.

He pulls out a handful of Ofuda charms, and the enchanted paper forms a split around a fractured bone in his leg, and Strange slipped himself under one of his arms.

"Let's get you someplace safe for food. And maybe a blood transfusion."
"I don't even take suggestions, why would I take orders?"

He can barely walk.

Incredible synergies result when blood suppliers and sickle cell advocacy groups team up — each side needs the support of the other to achieve the common goal of safe and effective transfusion therapy. Thank you CBS and SCAGO for hosting a fantastic evening 🇨🇦
