     Blood Donors Needed
     Please donate replacement blood for Laurice (Lori) Ellen Galo,
     who is in West Penn Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA. Lori has already
     received over 400 pints of blood. Donors must designate  blood
     donation is for Replacement Blood for Laurice Ellen Galo, West
     Penn  Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA. Sunday, January 30, 2005, 9am-
     2pm,  N.  Apollo Firehall, 311 16th Street, North Apollo,  PA.
     You  can schedule an appointment by calling Cristin Finley  at
     412-209-7072. Your blood donation can help someone like  Lori.
     In  1992,  now thirty-eight year old Lori Galo, was  diagnosed
     with  a  rare  type  blood clotting disorder -Antiphospholipid
     Antibody  Syndrome (APLS). Since her diagnosis, Lori  has  had
     many  blood  clots  in  her legs and lungs,  and  now  she  is
     battling  a  rare side effect of APLS called "Skin  Necrosis".
     Lori has been in the hospital since November 27, 2004 fighting
     this  disorder. She has used over 400 units of blood  products
     to  date.  On  a  daily  basis, Central Blood  Bank  needs  to
     register  725  donors  in  order to meet  the  needs  of  area
     patients. Because blood donors took the time to give this gift
     of life, Lori has a fighting chance. Please join Lori's family
     at  this  special blood drive in her name. Your blood donation
     will  help replenish the blood products that she has  used  so
     that others in need will have it. Giving blood is truly giving
     the gift of life.
