Velociraptor Feb 2020 10:05am, 28 Feb 2020 45,431 posts	0 Velociraptor My little blue folder donations were added, though it happened sort of automatically because my donation history has had only mandatory interruptions (post mononucleosis, during and after pregnancy) and at one session someone counted the tickets in the folder and put the number into the computer.

LindsD Feb 2020 12:32pm, 28 Feb 2020 33,646 posts	0 LindsD I first went in 1987 but was refused. I think I then went again in around 1990.

Fizz :-) Mar 2020 8:06am, 12 Mar 2020 3,576 posts	0 Fizz :-) Yesterday. My letter said “49” so I assumed it was my 49th donation. And then I got a text this morning “Congratulations on reaching the 50th milestone. You're really helping us to save and improve lives. Thank you so much. Every donation counts.”
