I had no idea how bad the local blood supply situation is.. Speaking to people in the last 24 hours a farang needed 0 neg last month and they only had a tiny amount of that.. He had a burst ulcer and it was a panic.. Rob donates regularly and told me they never stockpile enough..

Also there is no database of people on the island (it was crossing my mind to set one up) where people could be called on in an emergency.

If you come to live on an island community, find out your blood type and if you are a rare type donate (it might be your own life it saves).. This was something I had totally not picked up on but seems a very important thing. A database of emergency donors is so easy to achieve I cant believe they dont have it already !! TiT
