Catherine was saying that she will be going for blood donation in her Facebook yesterday. I just told her that I will join her as well since it was donkey years I last donated blood.
It turned out that we are responding to an sms that we have received later in the evening.

"Hi pls help to forward this to everyone on yr hp this is an appeal fr a great mum - Dear friends, my daughter Xia Yulin just did the 2nd bone marrow transplant recently. She is in NUH ward 88. Due to the complication, she's very sick n needs to transfuse platelet and red blood every day. Can anyone with A+ blood group, in good health donate Platelet to her and other blood type like O+, B, AB to donate the red blood to save her life?

Pls help to circulate the message as well. Best Regards. Dated 1 Nov 08 - gina"
I met up with Catherine first and headed over to Vivo City to pick up Alison (my secondary schoolmate). There was a little glitch and I almost could not do my part for 11 years old Yulin. Finally I managed to get hold of Dr Chris Chong and confirmed the lung booster medication is safe before proceeding with the donation.
The whole procedure is fast and it took me less than 10mins to donate one small pack of blood (due to my iron level).
