By Emily Massingill For the Times MONROE - For Sue Hiltbrand, giving whole blood to perfect strangers is a way of life. She's been donating almost regularly since the 1970s and says making the trek to Madison about once every eight weeks for the service is just a small, simple thing she can do to help those in need. Hiltbrand, 59, celebrated on Nov. 30 what many would consider a huge milestone - donating her 14th gallon of blood.
