Blood donation - you can save 3 lifes

One of my friend when asked about blood donation for his friend i was thinking how i can help them   
Earlier I used to be hesitant, afraid of it but after knowing some facts i realized i should help others as well can’t just watch and forward some text msgs in mobile, status in gtalk, fb etc...

when last time my company organized a blood donation few weeks back i donated blood.. felt it is a  noble, selfless service! It gives a feeling of joy and contentment. Also this is an expression of love for Mankind, as blood knows no caste, color, creed, religion or race, country, continent or sex.

A blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily donates blood  for transfusions. 
For a noble cause: most blood donors are unpaid volunteers. People who have misconception usually they think of giving blood only when family or friends need a transfusion.







Incase of emergency whom i should contact for blood?:

 Is it safe? : Donating is relatively safe, but some donors have bruising where the needle is inserted or may feel faint. Potential donors are evaluated for anything that might make their blood unsafe to use. The screening includes testing for diseases that can be transmitted by a blood transfusion, including HIV and viral hepatitis. The donor is also asked about medical history and given a short physical examination to make sure that the donation is not hazardous to his or her health.  

How often you can donate: How often a donor can give varies from days to months based on what he or she donates and the laws of the country where the donation takes place,usually 3 months gap is suggested   

Who can give: Any person within the age group of 18 - 60 years with a body weight as minimum 45 kgs, and having hemoglobin content as minimum 12.5 gm%.  

 You can find which blood group suits others.know your inner circle people blood groups it may help you in emergency.The amount of blood drawn and the methods vary. The collection can be done manually or with automated equipment that only takes specific portions of the blood.

One unit 450 ml can help 3 people..guys this is the least thing you can do for community ..help people.

Indian Cricket history rewritten with Worldcup 2011

:My best memories of cricket final 2011
April 2nd Ind Vs SL world cup final: I want to share my joy about one of the most memorable sports day i was waiting for long time may be from the day i admire cricket and sachin..

Everything is set for the historic final and i was gearing up to witness at my friends place with a bunch of my friends coming with families and kids too..we gathered around 2pm.As enthusiastic cricket fans every1 dressed up for occassion with tri colored flags,gaint screen,tattoos on faces few bleeding blue :) ..i was updating my FB as i guessed the QF score(260) ind vs Aus naturally there were guessing and here i gave 270-280 two days before the final and it again turned to be right.. 

HIGH ON TARGET :The game begin as SL batsmen came into the field like SriLankan lions but Indian first spell  under zaheers attack was worth watching but Jayawardene, the classy cricketer nearly took game away .Indians momentum with his classy shots and feathery touch  made undoubtedly a brilliant 100.We all rubbing our hands saying that at least there should be good score if not India will win single handedly.. lol!..and munching the snacks biscuits,chips,chockis,mangoes,watermelon and we too had a drinks break with lemonade :)..

Nail bitting moments: I left in FB status that i am gonna watchout how India faces malinga  here comes a nasty blow sehwag gone in the start but sachin superb straight drive brought us on tow waving flags..suddenly malinga came back and sachin gone!!! big..big..wicket suddenly tense all around and ladies who brought food packed for the occasion giving bouncers to others as they don't want their hard efforts on cooking to be part of spoiled party..few started playing with kids to ease out the tense..few crazy guys stick to screen(like me) started munching pop corn, dhokla heavily so nervous :(..

Momentum :Delhi saviour for T20 WC gambhir chipping with glorious shots and young lad kohli seems promising every1 giving  their view of how much partnership required..kohli lost for a amazing return catch for dilshan..As we friends expected DHONI came in and i told to my colleagues on Ind Vs Pak Semis that "i never saw dhoni coming up in WC which means he is not looking confident but here he promoted himself". I admire his qualities as leader who don't want to comment on young lads if something goes wrong from dressing room.he was out on the arena to make his day to support team.Dhoni fiercely hitted boundaries  offside in legandary muralis attack..match seems promising but still people are not taking it lightly as India known for collapsing in mins.All are stuck to the big screen including ladies who left in btw...biting nails ,praying god :)...as score card gradually ticking  smaller we jumped with joy, taking snaps with waving tri-colored indian flag shouting "Indiaaa Indiaaa".malinga back into attack but dhoni who already in superb touch inching forward on every boundary to make history

Glory: 4 runs required and dhoni bat ticked so sweetly to a rocketier that flew high in to the mumbai skies people roaring in the stands.. there was "Vandemataram" song playing fans are in trance..emotions everywr that a human can show on one's face anger,lost,anguish for SL fans,tears of joy on dhoni(nvr seen before),gary in dressing room felt like its his own country who made it as SA never own 1,sachin the god for 21years who waited for this day ran into ground emotionally,yuvarajs fury,bajjis senti bursted thru tears...1 billion people who witnessed live or on TV for this historic moment couldn't stand still in one place,there were people dancing,partying,drenched in winning celebrations.we had a mouthwatering dinner at-last after the presentation with all the happiness in the world and ended with an ice cream feast :D

Wat a fantastic day it is for indian cricket! goals,hardwork,commitment on fielding,bowling and batting .indian team gave their 100% as they know only one thing..they want  this cup for 1billion cricket fans supporting them and one man SACHIN for his contribution to indian cricket kudos! We are champions  "first time after i took my first breathe i saw india lifting 50 over world cup" its been a long wait but its worth it!!!!
