With the advancement of medicine, donations are now taken from peripheral blood to collect hematopoietic stem cells.

The doctor found that the blood vessels of the Yellow River were too thin, and he could not return the remaining blood at the same time as hematopoietic stem cells were drawn. Instead, he had to collect the hematopoietic stem cells from the jugular vein and the arm. This is a very rare situation. During the donation process, the Yellow River needed to stay motionless for 5 hours.
Lying on the loving bed, the Yellow River looked relaxed, but the father on the side couldn't help crying. Huang He told reporters that when he told his family that he would donate hematopoietic stem cells, the family expressed support, "However, there is no parent who doesn't care about the child under the world. Although they understand, they still worry about me."
