Learn more about donating blood
Shortly after giving birth to her daughter Agatha, Kate experienced a complete uterine inversion and started losing blood very quickly. She was rushed to the OR where she underwent two surgeries, resulting in the need for 14 units of blood and blood products.
Kate has had a long road to recovery, but she is grateful for those who gave blood so she could take care of her beautiful daughter.
“As a donor you’ll likely never know the impact of what you’re doing, but never doubt that you are actually saving someone’s life,” Kate said. “It makes a bigger difference than you can ever imagine to someone you’ll never meet.”
Schedule a blood donation in honor of mothers, and you can help vulnerable patients--and moms--who depend on blood transfusions.
