Blood needed urgently for Friday, O Negative please. The patient is in Lefkosa State Hospital, intensive care unit. Prospective donors cannot have taken pain killers for the previous 24 hrs prior to giving blood. Also, no heart meds, no warfarin etc, no blood pressure tabs, no allergy relief tabs or if generally unwell...Eddie is in a very delicate state. The contact is Yasmin on 0533 848 5769. Thank you so much in advance.

It is vital that you quote the patient's full name when donating, which is Edward Brian Hill.

Just to clarify, this blood group is needed as soon as possible.

This morning (Wed) the blood bank ran out of O Negative so it is now critical not just for Eddie but for any patient needing this group.
Please spread the word to all friends and relatives.

In addition there will be a blood donor session at the Girne Hospital on Saturday morning - all blood groups needed.

Thank you.

Sadly Eddie passed away last night.
Thank you to everyone who helped raise the profile of the need for blood and especially for O negative.
This is still desperately needed by the Blood Bank so anyone still able to donate, please do as this could save a life.
