Eric | Deltona,
FL
Like many teenagers Eric enjoys hanging out with
his friends and swimming. But, unlike most teenagers Eric
knows what it’s like to be a survivor. Doctors diagnosed Eric
with leukemia at the age of six. He spent weeks in the
hospital and years getting treatment.
Eric has been cancer free for about eight years now. Though
he did not need blood or platelets while being treated for leukemia
he saw a lot of other children that did need transfusions and
that’s why Eric decided to become a blood donor. Eric says he
plans to donate blood regularly in the future and he has already
saved six lives through his donations.
