在苏格兰的邓迪市有位名叫德兰·鲍威尔的退休拳师,18年前因意外事故跌断了双脚和双手。当时,医院血库里刚好没有合适的血型储备,而他的伤势又必须马上输血,否则很快就会死亡。输异型血只有1％成活的可能。德兰输了血,碰巧成活并康复了。后来他去献血,红十字会的专家们发现他的血液中产生了一种罕见的物质ANTI-D（抗死亡激素）。如父母的血分别为 RH阴性和RH阳性,母血抗体就会破坏胎儿的血液成份,危及胎儿或初生婴儿的生命,只有ANTI-D能解决这个问题。德兰毫不犹豫地答应了红十字会的请求,每13个星期献血一次,18年间他共拯救了5020名婴儿,苏格兰的母亲都将他视作英雄。
A retired boxer named Delland Powell, in Dundee, Scotland, broke his legs and hands 18 years ago after an accident. At that time, the hospital blood bank just did not have the right blood type reserve, and his injuries must be transfused immediately, otherwise it will soon die. Only 1% of transfusion dysplasia may survive. Dran lost blood, happened to survive and recovered. Later, he went to donate blood, and Red Cross experts found that ANTI-D (anti-death hormone), a rare substance in his blood, was produced. If the parents’ blood is RH-negative and RH-positive respectively, the maternal blood antibody will destroy the fetal blood components and endanger the life of the fetus or newborn baby. Only ANTI-D can solve this problem. DeLand did not hesitate to agree with the Red Cross’s request to donate blood every 13 weeks. During the 18 years he saved 5,020 babies, all of whom were regarded as heroes by Scottish mothers.
