As someone who works at the 37MH and has worked at the blood bank, let me clarify a few things.
Your grandmother received 3 units of blood. That blood didn’t appear from nowhere ,it came from voluntary donors. Facilities like 37 rely heavily on replacement donations to keep the system running so that the next patient who needs blood can also get it. When a patient receives multiple units, it’s standard practice to ask the family to help replace what was used. That’s how the blood supply is sustained.
About the menstrual-cycle issue: most women on their period tend to present with lower haemoglobin levels. If your Hb is low, you simply cannot donate. It’s a safety rule to protect the donor, not an attempt to frustrate anyone.
So yes, the request for replacement donors is a NECESSARY practice.
I’m honestly surprised people are acting like this is some form of wrongdoing. We can’t keep painting the health system as malicious when what’s being applied here is basic blood bank protocol and donor safety.

Seriously, get married and have a dual income household on time. The longer you postpone this, the harder it is to compound the benefits. It is the greatest middle-class hack to wealth. Forget all the stupid gender extremism here. Fall in love, get married, build together.
President John Dramani Mahama calls for the depoliticization of infrastructure projects, stating that roads, bridges, and hospitals should be seen as symbols of national progress rather than partisan achievements.
