One teenager got her birthday wish today.

Since she was born, Miriam Curry has been celebrating her birthday by hosting a blood drive each year. Miriam has a rare blood disorder and must receive blood transfusions every three weeks.

Her blood drive at the Holiday Inn on Friday, March 25th was a success. Her goal was to collect 140 pints of blood, and the drive exceeded this amount.
