I am blown away by the response to this post and the number of people signing up to donate blood-including my very needle-phobic son. If possible, please post a photo on Facebook or here after your donation so I can keep count!!
I met Dr. Budin briefly when I interviewed at Driscoll for MSS dept. in December 2021. He made such lasting impression on me, when he shared a story with me that day that later I found out he would share often with others, but it didn't matter Dr. Budin had made me feel like I was the first person he was telling that story to. I used to donate blood all the time years ago but have not donated in years. Now seems the perfect time to start again in honor of Dr. Budin. I have my appointment scheduled and I will be donating on Tuesday 11.21.2023. Thank you for sharing so much of your life and for giving us an insight to the great man Dr. Budin was.
I forgot how much Lee gave blood and he would give the double red, I believe? I will be honored to do the same and will continue to do so on his birthday. Thinking of you both often! ❤️
