Plasma

Today I donate plasma again. Plasma is that yellow stuff that oozes out when you have a scratch or a wound. They separate it out from the whole blood and then return the red blood cells to the donor. Plasma is used for cancer and bone marrow therapy, along with some bleeding disorders.
Every minute of every day, a Canadian somewhere needs blood or blood products...

Only 2% of eligible Canadians donate blood or blood products...

What's stopping you?
