Over labor day weekend I went to my Granny and Papa's and had a blast!!! First I met them at church and while I was there I donated my blood. It was the 6th or 7th time I'd donated and I have never had problems before but this time I almost passed out. The nurses made me stay laying down for 20 minutes which was annoying but they had to. I understand that.
There are four children at my new church who have been diagnosed with leukemia and I share the same blood type with one of them; A- which is a pretty rare blood type so I'm more than likely going to be donating mine to him. I also took a test to see if my bone marrow type will match his. They're supposed to call me to let me know. I REALLY hope it does! I want to help one of these kids. I'd love to help all of them but if I can only help one, that's better than none of them. It was sad seeing him sick and not wanting to go play with the other kids. I believe he's 6 or 7. I'm not sure though but it was depressing because that's not how little kids should be.

ile I was at my Granny and Papa's house I noticed a horse behind their house in a dirt pen that had never been there before. So, naturally, I went inside and grabbed three apples and gave them to her. While I fed her I noticed flies in a group right above her right eye where the halter had slipped off of her ear. I pulled it up and she had a deep cut from the halter being on her for too long right above her eye. I climbed the fence and pulled the halter over her head and tossed it on the fence. It had been on her so long that the buckle wouldn't come loose. I was really pissed about the owners having left it on her that long. I figured maybe her halter had just slipped over her right ear and been like that for a few hours but from the look of the wound it had been several days. I swear people are so baka!!!
Alas, many are.

I also helped my Papa mow a HUGE yard! It was fun until I got extremly hot and began feeling light-headed. I don't think it helped that I was still low on blood. heh..oh well! Twas fun!!!!
