Pro Player Insiders’ is asking everyone to take the time and donate plasma this week. One of our team members, Trish Scott’s sister Mellissa Rodriguez is in need of plasma donations – 5,000 every few weeks.

Melissa’s body does not make the antibodies necessary to fight off any sickness. A simple cold could kill her. In order for Melissa  to sustain healthy and be able to fight off any sickness it is imperative that she receives IVIG infusions.  She will need these infusions every 4 weeks for the rest of her life.

This past year has been increasingly difficult to stay healthy.  Melissa has had double pneumonia 3 times this year, also has dealt with shingles along with viral infections here and there.

It takes approximately 5000 donations of plasma in order for someone to receive their infusion every couple weeks. You can help Melissa and others by making a plasma donation.

By donating plasma you are saving the lives of people like her and people with these terrible genetic disorders and diseases. There are many sick patients that require plasma. Most clinics in the Phoenix area are open from 9am to 5pm Monday through Friday. The average going rate for plasma donations is $50.00 for your first visit. The entire plasma donation process only takes between 90-120 minutes. Donors receive cash payments directly after their donation.
