"Who was the first person to donate blood? I'm very proud to know my son gives blood so that others may have a chance to live. As a result, many lives have been saved. In our modern world donating blood is a safe procedure that hurts very little. Donors lie on soft beds in a clean environment while nurses use clean needles to collect their blood. When Jesus Christ gave His blood over 2000 years ago, He did not have the benefit of a soft bed or a clean needle."
