The snow was falling and the roads had become dangerous. The schools were dismissed early, but much to my surprise, my______ wasn't canceled. So I went, feeling especially heroic. As far as I could see, I was risking my life to keep my______. Snow or no snow, I would be on time for my scheduled donation at the local______ center.

When I got there, I discovered I wasn't______. Four more “hero-types” were already lying back in donor chairs with lines______to their veins(静脉), and machines quietly pumping away to______ their life-saving gifts.

Seeing my fellow donors honoring their own commitments, I realized why I was there. I lay back in my donor chair, ready to make a______ to the life of someone I would never______.

To be honest, I'd never really thought about why I donate. I just did it.______a few months ago, during one of my______ donations I learned that my blood was specifically for a cancer patient and for a newborn baby — both patients needed what I would give in order to live. I've viewed my visits to the blood center______ ever since.

My wife Karen is a______, too. And more importantly, she has been on the bone marrow(骨髓) list for fifteen years, ever since she______ to provide bone marrow to a kindergartner with leukemia (白血病). That little girl died before Karen's bone marrow could help her, but Karen was called again recently. Her test results were still on file, and it turned out she was a potential______ for someone else. The caller asked Karen if she would still be willing to become a bone marrow donor. “Yes,” she said and then immediately began answering questions on the pages of paperwork for further testing. It was a ______ against time.

I wish I could say that this race was______. Unluckily, it wasn't. The caller later thanked Karen for her participation and asked a few more questions-including whether or not she'd______  on the donor list.  “Of course,” Karen answered.

Last week Karen gave blood and next week I'll make my usual donation. I'll clear an afternoon from my schedule and make an appointment. I don't know whose life my donation may______. Most likely it will be a______, but on any day the person needing blood could be you or me or maybe a loved one. It is worthwhile to______our time to donate.

I really do feel proud every time I donate. And I like the feeling.
