Alisia hit another mile stone this week on the ship. Blood donation.
As many of you know, the crew of the Africa Mercy is its own blood bank. The hospital does not have the ability to store blood long term as a western blood bank is able. So for some of the patients who under go surgery for massive tumors, they are dependent upon the crew to provide life giving blood.
Alisia has been looking forward to the day she was able to help one of the patients by donating her blood.
Expectant waiting...I have never see a more excited person to donate blood.
Claudia weighing the blood...450 ml
The proud donor!!!
