Life Billy Gallacher, six-year-old boy, changed after suffering from a rare disease. For the sake of survival, he needs 120 thousand liters of blood per year.
Billy suffered from a disease that can cause nose bleeds for 90 minutes and suffered only bruising and bleeding due to hold his mother's hand.
From the results of medical examinations, she was diagnosed with Thrombocytopenia cycle. People with only one person among a million people. People with this disorder will experience excessive bleeding.
To treat and make a normal life, Billy needed a blood transfusion with particular proteins. The difficulty again, the blood proteins that the body needs Billy found only in a small number of donors.
To be able to survive and live a normal life, Billy takes 10 thousand liters of blood per month.
Billy's mother, Dawn, 28, said, "Billy's body will be bruised and bleeding throughout the body when you hold her. He can not do anything. Even dangerous for him to climb the bench."
"I am very grateful to all those who donate blood. It takes large quantities of blood to help save her life and made him live a normal life," his mother said as quoted by The Sun.
The boy from Todmorden, West Yorks is regularly visited the Calderdale Royal Hospital for a blood transfusion for ten hours.
Blood transfusion aims to increase the number of platelets in the blood to clot normally. Without it, he could not stem the bleeding if injured.
If a donor is only able to provide one liter of blood, the year Billy needs help 120 thousand people.
UK National Blood Donor Services Pam Prescott said, "Billy is one of the reasons why we need to maintain blood stocks. We always need new donors."
