Robson Ranch to host blood drive on June 25

 

Robson Ranch is hosting a Blood Drive through United Blood Services on Monday, June 25 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. United Blood Services is Arizona’s oldest and largest non-profit blood provider. United Blood Services is the sole blood provider to Banner Casa Grande Medical Center and provides blood components to 64 of the 71 hospitals in Arizona.

June donors help people like Branden, who, thanks to 72 blood donors, won his battle against cancer twice. When Branden injured his knee during high school hockey practice several years ago, his orthopedic surgeon thought he had torn a ligament. But an MRI showed a hot spot and additional tests revealed cancer. After three months of chemotherapy and more than 30 blood transfusions, Branden graduated on-time, but within a few months the cancer spread to his lungs. It took five surgeries to remove more than 50 nodules, which was followed by a stem cell transplant and daily blood transfusions for a month. Thanks to blood donors, today Branden is cancer free and his greatest love is being a father.
