"To the person out there who took time out of their day to donate platelets which went to St John's ward, Crumlin, you are the reason my child has gone from a sick very tired little girl back to her usual lovely self in 24 hours and we can rescue what is left of Christmas. Thank you whoever you are." 

Ever mulled over donating?
