Because the one time I gave blood, I got so dizzy and felt so sick and nauseous, I almost passed out. Then I got this HUGE bruise on my arm that was oh-so-purple and attractive. But look....while I'm not jumping in front of Blood-mobiles to make them stop and take my blood, I will promise that if you or anyone else in my circle of friends or family NEEDS blood, I will step up to donate.

That was a wonderful thing you did. Your post didn't scare me away... even after the first time I gave blood, threw up in the bathroom and passed out afterwards. No, I'm not afraid, I tell you. I'm not afraid at ALL to eat cookies immediately after or all the juice I want. I was trying to be polite and not hog the cookies, but now I know why it's so important. The worst part? I was still in high school. Yes, I was the girl they talked about all afternoon. *sigh* I may have saved a life via donated humiliation. You also can't give blood for quite awhile if you've been on a mission trip and taken malaria PILLS - found that out the next time I tried to give blood and was curiously relieved. You GO GIRL!

That's great. It's not so bad. I've given blood lots of times but lately I keep faililng (severe anemia) even though I'm taking iron pills. I'm ready to give it another try, though! Aw, good for you!

I've never given blood. I went twice to do it, but there were vein issues. (My veins have special needs) and then I went twice but it was too close to a tattoo. (they require a year.) good for you!

I am SO proud of you, I read your comment and I was so surprised that you volunteered for the Red Cross and had never donated and now look at you. The last time I tried I was denied because I spent seven hours in Mexico during a cruise. But it's time I try again and I'll do it in honor of you and your courage! WAY TO GO - You helped save someone's life. You go girl.
