A Clifton Park woman is using her scary experience during childbirth to draw attention to the importance of donating blood.

Sara Bovee Hines was induced at 38 weeks. Her son Jamison came into the world two days later. However, he was rushed off to the intensive care unit with some medical issues. Then, she realized there was a puddle on the floor of her room, and she realized it was blood.

Hines needed to have all the blood in her body replaced.

She is now trying to call attention to the importance of blood donations.

There is a drive on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Kitchen and Bath World at 1980 Central Ave. in Albany.
