Two longtime donors celebrating a huge accomplishment at Canadian Blood Services.
Don Shaw and Ken Gould are the first donors in the province to donate plasma 700 times.
Shaw, who gave blood for the first time in 1965, tells CHSJ News he has a family connection to blood and plasma donation.
He tells us his daughter needed a complete blood transfusion when she was 2 years old as a RH negative child and he figures if someone could help his daughter 45 years ago then maybe his donations can save someone today.
Shaw says he never thought he'd make 700 donations because he never thought he'd make it to the age of 75.
