Tehr eare a few bloodless options out ther ethat are easy and less risky. Hopefully technology will continue to improve in this regard. I hate hearing bout people seriously sick or ill for any reason.

sorry to hear about ur father in law...but what kind of Cancer did he have? And do you know the name of the meds they put him on? I'm actually studyin for my USMLE (i take it next month) and although it saddens me to hear when these kinda things happen to people, it also sparks my curiosity.

Back in November, I found out my wifes father had cancer. Its a pretty late stages of cancer, and they had to do Chemotherapy. Well one of the side effects happens to be platelets.
Anyhow, as a result I now donate blood as often as I can and would like to encourage others to do the same, Giving blood can really help save a life.
A few link for you if your interested.

I am so sorry to hear that about your father-in-law. Going through somewhat of the same thing. Father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. No chemo though. They won't take my blood, but my brother gives blood and also gives his platelets.
