My Sister

On August 22, 1980, the car that my sister was riding in was hit by a drunk driver. She was in surgery for several hours after the accident and used lots of blood. She did not survive and my family suffered extremely. My father received notice from his employer not to worry about the cost of the blood. The company, an environment recycling company, had a contract with a blood supplier to destroy their old blood and in return receive blood for its employees. I like this healthcare plan better than Obama’s. I have donated blood for many years to give back for all the love that was given to help save my sister.
