Many of us may be blood donors, but how many do it twice a month?
For Ibrahim Mat Taib, he has been donating blood twice a month since 1997 and to date, the 53-year-old has done it 166 times!
And the best thing is, he has no plans to stop and wants to hit the 200 mark before he reaches 58.
He started donating 25 years ago when his friend met with an accident and lost lots of blood.
Blood supply was scarce at the hospital and to save his friend, Ibrahim donated his blood for the very first time to save his friend’s life.
Since that day, he has had a desire to save more lives and became a regular donor.
Ibrahim, from Kota Bahru now goes to the hospital or to any blood donation campaign every two weeks to do his good deed.
“I’m not doing this for reward, nor do I expect appreciation from anyone. I am voluntarily saving lives”, he stressed.
