It is always a nice feeling to help people in need.

A significant friend's cousin, a 13-year-old child, is currently suffering from stage 2 leukemia, and is in dire need of blood donors due to profuse bleeding. Thank God I have siblings and friends who are more than willing to share blood, though it is all our first time and we all have busy schedules.

How to save a life
I feel for the child, in the sense that I am also scared to die. It is a morbid thought indeed, realizing that all of us will go to that "destination" one day, though we just don't know when.

This is not the case of this kid who was given only 6-8 months to live, way back November 2011. It must be dreadful counting hours and days, while you are bed-ridden, getting weaker and weaker as minutes pass by.

Life is short. But it is long enough for us to live and be alive, to feel all the love and blessings in our life, to appreciate all the people we have in our whole existence and to extend an arm just to help save a life, even in our own little way.
