Pure Blood Registry has joined forces with an international group "THE ALLIANCE OF BLOOD COOPERATIVE"; It is imperative that the state governments protect the rights of its citizens with the choice of

a blood donor for a scheduled surgery or emergent need. Autologous (self) and Directed-Donor (donor of choice) has been used for years in hospitals, but recently hospitals are denying this option.

Point is, very serious people are taking notice and trying to ensure this happens. We must have the option and it may be difficult, but that does not mean we do not try and get even a semblance of this to emerge. People must be able to ensure the blood they use for their own needs (autologous or directed) is safe and based on their needs and wants.

‘It is imperative that the state governments protect the rights of its citizens with the choice of a blood donor for a scheduled surgery or emergent need. Autologous (self) and Directed-Donor (donor of choice) has been used for years in hospitals, but recently hospitals are denying this option. Individuals must have a choice for donated blood.

This "Letter to Legislator" asks that laws be passed to address this issue and 

protect patients' rights. It is imperative laws are created to protect personal 

choice and patient rights regarding blood donation.

I also think DailyClout did some initial work showcasing this initiative and warrants some recognition (Dr. Wolf’s organization).
