Everything Offends Me
My wife has an interesting conundrum. Apparently, no one can type her blood. She is either B+ or B-, but never consistently the same (even the same lab can randomly get a different result). Every doctor approaches this with the same "psssh, of course I can get it typed, they must not have known what they were doing," but across 3 states and dozens of doctors, no one has.
So - that said, we were talking about it today and it occurred to us that if she came of need to receive a blood transfusion, say in an emergency, it would be a crap shoot as to whether she got safe blood or not.
How can one store their own blood for future purposes such as this?
