Blood Appeal for Armin Arana

Our media colleague Armin Arana is hospitalized and needs your help. The veteran radio announcer fell ill and is now in need of thirteen pints of blood. Arana’s colleague Julia Carillo of Love FM tells us more about how you can help:

“He is A positive – that is his blood type and he is in need of thirteen pints of blood because of the fact that he is losing blood and they don’t know as yet what is the cause of it. He will need to seek additional medical assistance to find out what is going on. What they can do is to go to any of the blood centers countrywide and they can make a donation of a pint of blood in the name of Armin Arana and they can take a copy of the slip they are given to Belize Medical Associates. If they are not in Belize City, they can send us a whatsapp to 651-1834 with a snap of that so that we can share with Belize Medical Associates.”

“I imagine you want this blood urgently – asap?”

“Yes because as you know they will start to give you the blood but in his case it needs to be replaced and in his case he needs a lot of it. His blood fell relatively low so he really needs it as soon as possible.”

“So just A you are accepting?”

Julia Carillo

“We are accepting A positive or any of the O – positive or negative – those are the three types of blood they are accepting at this time. Anyone who knows Armin knows that he is well-known in sports and other things and we have been getting a lot of calls from people asking how they can assist.”
