I've decided that when I walk the Camino again, I will start once more from Roncesvalles & walk all the way to Santiago. Because of my recent illness, I would like to try to do what Gareth did on his walk, but instead of your money, I want your blood. :twisted: My life was saved because of about 14 or 15 individuals who for whatever reason, decided to donate some blood, which was used to help keep me alive until my surgery, so as a way of saying "thanks," I would like to raise at least 1 donation of blood for every kilometer I walk on my Camino. That's about 750 pints, gang. I hope to be healthy enough & have enough leave time saved up to do this in September 2009. It doesn't matter where you live or when you donate; if you wish to contribute, let me know when you have donated blood & I will make note of it on my blog. This will be on the honor system! :)

Kelly-girl, I've never given blood but will start - in your name. Will let you know when the first pint is taken!
