“So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's fury subsided.” – Esther 7:10
Alexander Bogdanov was a Russian physician. In 1924, Bogdanov started his blood transfusion experiments, apparently hoping to achieve eternal youth or at least partial rejuvenation. Lenin's sister Maria Ulyanova was among many who volunteered to take part in Bogdanov's experiments. After undergoing 11 blood transfusions, Bogdanov remarked with satisfaction the improvement of his eyesight, suspension of balding, and other positive symptoms. His fellow revolutionary Leonid Krasin wrote to his wife that "Bogdanov seems to have become 7, no, ten years younger after the operation". In 1925–1926, Bogdanov founded the Institute for Hematology and Blood Transfusions, which was later named after him.
A later transfusion in 1928 cost Bogdanov his life when he took the blood of a student suffering from malaria and tuberculosis.
The actions we sow, we shall also reap. Today in prayer, confess to the Lord any sin in your life and seek to be Christlike in all that you do.
