Lorelei turned 18 last January. This Tuesday, April 6, this Autunoise came to the Colonel-Lévêque room, in Autun, to give blood for the first time. “Since I was little, I knew that one day I would come and give my blood,” she said.
Lorelei is a high school student at Lycée Bonaparte (Leclerc site) specializing in tapestry. She has been aware of the existence of the local association for blood donation since childhood. “My uncle is a regular donor and it is he who informed me of the monthly rhythm of the collection in Autun”, confides the young woman, who noted the lack of blood at the time. A fact confirmed by Françoise André, president of the association: “Due to the sanitary situation, many fixed and mobile collection points are suspended. “
“This is the first time that I have taken part in a collective solidarity action in this way. I feel useful to the sick and injured, Lorelei smiles. It was not painful. The questionnaire is more comprehensive than I expected but it only took me an hour. Really, you have to dare! “
90 meetings were offered for this month of April, all were honored.
APPOINTMENT Next blood donation Tuesday May 4 from 8 am to 5 pm, by appointment.
