This year in the month of March, Alex's wife had been admitted to a local hospital and was found to be suffering from serious fibroids that were found to be bleeding and causing excessive loss of blood.
The doctors recommended surgery to get rid of the fibroids once and for all. However, there was not enough blood at the hospital to facilitate the successful carrying out of the operation.
At the time Mr.Alex was calling our offices for assistance, the national blood bank was low on blood units and therefore we were compelled to go to our database of past blood donors, calling up those that matched Alex's wife blood group and were due for donation.
After many relentless attempts, Mr.Mwangi, a Nairobi businessman agreed to donate and help save the life of a total stranger. The following day, he donated blood and the operation on Mr.Alex's wife was performed successfully. She is now recovering.
