Donors Brave Rainstorm In Show of Support for Rockville Centre Resident Battling Cancer
The blood drive in support of Rob Sullivan was organized by his friends in conjunction with an event that Mercy had previously-scheduled for that day with Long Island Blood Services which attracted another 79 potential donors. "We thought it was a fabulous idea and a great way for us to give something back and help others," said Rob's wife, Suzanne. By the end of the day, the concurrent drives collected 288 pints of blood. "It is," said Suzanne Sullivan, "Humbling and encouraging to know that we have so much support from which to draw strength."
