Big Red Bus Blood Drive details!!

Hello Everyone, As you know I am having surgery in Boston to replace a valve I received when I was 12. This will be my 6th heart surgery and will require me to be on the heart lung machine and using many pints of blood. Many people have asked if there was something they could do to help out. We especially need prayers and we would like to let you know there will be a blood drive in my name and in my... honor to replenish the supply I may be using. Amy Bolt at First National Bank in Mt. Dora has coordinated bringing the Big Red Bus to the parking lot at FNB from 9A.M.-2P.M. where you can donate in her name on Tuesday, June 12. This is especially significant because that is the day I am scheduled for my surgery at Boston's Children's Hospital. I will post the flyer from Florida's Blood Centers when I get it. If you would like to do this you NEED to give the people at the blood center: the drive for Megan Ward and the group number is A118. If you give blood at their regular centers you can give them my name and the number and it will go in my name. 
Also, We are praying for a miracle during the cath. the day before surgery. They do such incredible things at these hospitals! Boston Children's program for adult survivors of congenital heart surgery is one of the best.
I greatly appreciate & am over whelmed by all of your emails, calls and texts!! Thank you
