Fifty years ago I married my soldier sweetheart．Six weeks later, he left to fight in Korea．While he was away for that first year of our marriage, I stayed with my mum and worked hard to keep our savings for our first home．After John returned, we found a home and applied for a War Service Home Loan, which at that time took about six months to come through.
The builder of our home lived in the same street as our house and he allowed us to move in and pay rent until our loan came through．The rent was one pound and ten shillings per week, which we thought fair．As we got to know our neighbors, several told us to watch our landlord as he was “sharp” and may cheat us in some way．We always replied that he had given us no cause for complaint.
The loan money came through shortly before Christmas．We were not well-off but we were happy to have our own home．One night, two weeks before Christmas, there was a knock at our door．It was our landlord and his wife．We invited them in and our landlord said, “As you know, your loan has come through and you do not have to pay me rent any more．I did not set that rent, the estate agent（房产代理商）did, and I thought it was a bit high．Every time you paid me I put ten shillings away in a box．It came to 11 pounds.
We were surprised and delighted．To us, it was a small fortune just in time for Christmas．We were able to buy gifts for our entire family．It was the nicest thing anyone had ever done for us and we decided that we would never judge anyone on hearsay.

When we donate（捐献）blood, a small amount is usually taken in advance for at least ABO and Rh systems typing．If you are O+, the O is your ABO type and the + is your Rh type．It is possible to be A, B, AB, or O as well as Rh + or Rh-．
The ABO system was discovered by Karl Landsteiner in the early 1900s．He was awarded the Nobel Prize for his achievements．There are four basic types of blood in the ABO system: A, B, AB and O．Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood．We get blood type, just like hair color and height from parents．Because of the substances (物质) contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully．If two different blood types are mixed together, it may put a person into an extremely dangerous situation．Basically, A and B cannot be mixed．A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B．In an emergency, type O blood can be given because it is most likely to be accepted by all blood types，so it is often called the universal donor．However，there is still a risk．For the opposite reason，AB is sometimes called the universal receiver．However，because there can be so many reactions in transfusions，patients usually receive only salt until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of the hospital．
There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality．Among the Europeans, about 45 percent have type O while 42 percent have type A．The rarest is type AB．Other races have different percentage．For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type out of 100 donors in the world…

84 donors are Rh+ |

38 are O+ |
7 are O- |
