Thursday, 19Aug10, Hattiesburg, MS, UBS blood center
Blood fact: “Children being treated for cancer, premature infants and children undergoing heart surgery, need blood and platelets from donors of all types … especially type O.”
Another amazing day on the road … this time to the UBS blood center in Hattiesburg, MS.
The day started out with two radio interviews by phone: 9:00 a.m. the interview was with Craig Horton on Sunny93 in Tupelo, MS, and 9:10 a.m. it was with Scott Spencer at Miss 98 …. both hosts were very concerned about helping their “listeners” become more aware of the need for blood in their local community.
Then over to the blood center where I met their blood donors and their staff … at noon … they hosted a luncheon for dignitaries from City of Hattiesburg, MS, and their local TV station, and two of the news reporters … Thank you to John H. Brown, (assistant to the Mayor), Mike Blount (Hattiesburg American) and many of the staff … Tony, Angela, Christina, Heather, and the awesome donors who took the time to donate and speak with the local TV reporters … and … news reporters!
It was another great day on the road … “On the road again … I just can’t wait to get on the road again, the life I love is meeting, greeting and thanking donors and staff”
I’m now in Meridian and have a 8:00 a.m. radio interview tomorrow with Mike Wooford, WGTJ, out of Gainesville, FL … it should be another awesome day!
Talk to you later …
