If I didn’t receive transfusions, I could be in organ failure and, within 6 weeks or a month I’d be dead.”
The woman, who was then 30, said she had a good and active lifestyle until an annual testing of blood showed some baffling numbers.”My iron levels were at zero, and then my doctor] said that my hemoglobin levels were very low.” states Ronahan. “I did not really be aware at the time of what hemoglobin actually was and the doctor explained that it was simply the blood in my body.”
