Itās International Plasma Awareness Week and itās time to talk about the power of plasma. At Lifeblood, we supply 6,500 plasma medicines and transfusions to hospitals every day. Weāre shining a light on its role in modern medicine and the generosity of donors who make it possible
Plasma is yellow, mostly water and a part of your blood that holds all other blood cells. Plasma can be used in 18 different life-saving treatments and Australia needs a new donation every 33 seconds. Share this post so more people can give the power of plasma. #lifebloodau

Melās story shows compassion in action. 30,000 litres of donated breast milk is an incredible milestone thanks to the generosity of donors. @lifebloodau, weāre proud of this life-changing service and the families it helps. Thank you to every milk donor whoās made a difference.
30,000 litres of donated breast milk since 2018. Thatās thousands of tiny lives supported and itās all thanks to incredible donors like Mel. After giving birth to Leo, Mel signed up to donate, knowing her milk could help premature babies. #lifebloodau

Matildaās story is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. Blood donors played a quiet but critical role in her recovery from cancer. Iām proud of the impact @Lifebloodau donors continue to make every day.
Matilda, aka Toots, went through rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery during treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma, an aggressive cancer that doesnāt allow muscle cells to develop properly. The quiet heroes in Matildaās recovery? The generosity of blood donors. #lifebloodau
