The millions of people who have given and who give blood – the most selfless act.
This website is dedicated to the memory of Morne Van Rensburg of Durban, a brave little fellow who, despite the valiant effort of his parents Hans and Engela to get him a bone marrow transplant in time, died of SCID in the third year of his life. One of his few words was 'eina', Afrikaans for ouch.
