By the end of August he had received over 2 50 blood transfusions. S anley is suffering from a ??re blood disease?purpura Mch causes him to bleed in fernally.

The blood Stanley needs in his battle for life is supplied laily through the Wichita Re gional Blood Center. On the road to recovery after his first illness, Stanley return ed to his home, but his progress vas retarded by an attack of inal meningitis. This time he has been in St. Francis Hospital, Wichita, almost continuously 3ince January. H's parents and two sisters are regular blood donors through the Red Cross National Blood Program.
