Just a year-and-a-half after a frightening medical crisis during childbirth nearly took her life (and required 250 units of blood to save her life), Lauren Larsen successfully completed the 26.2 mile New York City Marathon on 11/3/01 with her husband Jeff!
Like four-and-a-half million other Americans, Lauren would not be here without life-saving blood transfusions. Just hours after an emergency C-section to save the life of her daughter Clare, her liver and kidneys failed and she slipped into a severe coma. For several weeks her life hung in a delicate balance. While the exact cause of her illness is still uncertain, one thing is clear. She is alive because of the 250 people who made sure blood was available when she needed it most. Jeff's shirt says it all...Thank you blood donors!
