Hiya Nancy
I am 0 neg and mine can be received by anyone (unless there is a specific reason why she would need her own blood group (see below).
I would be willing to part with some of mine as long as I could see the needles were new.
Let me know.

Blood transfusions - who can receive blood from whom? People with blood group 0 are called "universal donors" and people with blood group AB are called "universal receivers." Of course you can always give A blood to persons with blood group A, B blood to a person with blood group B and so on. But in some cases you can receive blood with another type of blood group, or donate blood to a person with another kind of blood group.
The transfusion will work if a person who is going to receive blood has a blood group that doesn't have any antibodies against the donor blood's antigens. But if a person who is going to receive blood has antibodies matching the donor blood's antigens, the red blood cells in the donated blood will clump.
Blood Group Antigens Antibodies Can give blood to Can receive blood from AB A and B None AB AB, A, B, 0
A A B A and AB A and 0 B B A B and AB B and 0 0 None A and B AB, A, B, 0 0
Take care
