FRIDAY 9th DECEMBER:
Last night, we were told that Joni-Mai's blood counts were very low and she would need to have a blood transfusion. Joni-Mai copes very well with having to spend time in hospital and also quite enjoys having a transfusion. Her body seems to like the transfusions, too! It is an incredible thing to see, her lips go from being very pale pink (bordering on grey) to a beautiful bright red. Her energy levels shoot up and she turns from being freezing cold to toasty and warm. Although it's sad to think Joni-Mai depends on blood donations from others, it is amazing to see the transformation in her.
The video, below, is Joni-Mai's take on blood transfusions!
