Saturday I am giving blood again - for the 101st time. That number reminds me of an amusing incident. In 1998, when my Grandmother turned 101, my then-3-year-old niece Courtney amused everyone by noting, "Grandma Fida's just like the dalamatians!" (The movie "101 Dalmatians")
Years ago, when she was quite young, my now-25-year-old daughter Christy emailed me about my giving blood, and referred to it as the "essential substance of life." She has now forgotten this, and credits me with the phrase ... but it all started with her.
