They don't want mine, either.  And they seem to be desperate for blood, of
any type.  Two reasons they don't want mine: (1) I'm a cancer survivor, and
(2) the soup of chemicals and preservatives that's in it, I take six 
prescription pills every day (diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol - and the
real deal killer - Plavix, a blood thinner).
