We make a living by what we get !

but we make a life by what we give !!

I am donating my Platelets for the second time at TMH ( Tata Memorial Hospital , www.tmc.gov.in ) . 

Its such a great feeling knowing my Platelets will save someone's life . 

Its not at all harmful to donate Platelets ,infact it is good for the doners to donate Platelets for the following reasons :

1. Bone marrow is stimulated so fresh platelets !!

2. Donors are tested  regularly for complete blood count & serologicals tests which includes HBsAg , HCV , HBV , Malaria , Syphillis . ( blood transmitted diseases free of cost . So it's like a regular health check up ! 

3. Most importantly knowing that  you're helping cancer patients.

 Donating platelets to them, can provide full dose of platelets for a patient, sometimes up to three patients.                                     

Please refer to my previous FB post regarding details about Platelets ..

The only reason I am posting this on FB is to encourage others to donate Platelets .  

Thank you Dr. Smriti for this awareness . 🙏🏻
