Donating Blood

I donate whenever I can, it's like a get out of work free card!

 

I can't donate blood, I have been on prescption meds since age 21, so my blood would only do harm to someone, defeating the good, as I would if I could.

 

i never give blood. i would if i could. i use to give blood and, when aids struck back in the early 1980's i was no longer allowed to. i test negative on hiv yet, the red cross says my blood is not good enough. fuck the red cross!

 

I really, really don't enjoy people sticking a needle in my arm and taking my blood, so unless I'm helping out a friend or getting paid for it I doubt it.

 

Nope, never have.. cos of needle-phobia. fuck needles, I will *NOT* have them near me.. that ain't gonna change.

 

I donate blood twice a year. The people at Red Cross are usually pretty good and I don't have to wait too long. It takes about 45 minutes to an hour, with the paper work and questions taking most of the time.

 

today is world aids day. i stopped by the public libaray where they were giving free screenings. i tested hiv negitive and, still the red cross won't take my blood! it is like what there not saying and are thinking is: "your blood is dirty because your, a dirty faggot!" the red cross is shit!

 

I would donate blood if i was able too. I dont even get blood tests anymore because of my fainting issue. I also convulse after. I tried to give blood at my school but they said my iron was too low to give so i cried and the nurse talking to me about it starting crying too. it was really emotional for me. Im sorry for the possible lives i could of saved.

 

Every year.

 

I can't donate blood because I'm on too much medication to be eligable. I would if I didn't have medical conditions though.

 

each time i am eligible, i do it. i hate needles, and can't watch, but it is so worth it! it is such a simple way to help save lives, and causes me no harm...
why wouldn't anyone do it if they could?

 

fuck yea i donate blood!
i said twice a year, approximately.

i think i've only done it like 4 or 5 times, so maybe it's more like once a year?

why not?
buncha greedy fuckers in here
or low iron, either way

 

I don't think people can be labeled greedy because they don't donate blood.

In any case, when I get older I plan to do it as often as possible.

 

I haven't yet, but I intend to soon as long as I'm "eligible." apparently, you have to wait twelve months after getting a tattoo to donate blood in some states -- and I got some ink in September.

 

i donated blood for the first time last month! so next time they want me, i shall go and bleed for them

 

I said never because I can't as well. Anemic.

 

low iron doesnt mean your greedy.

 

I try to whenever possible. Sometimes they won't take
it if my hemaglobin is too low or my blood pressure too
high and sometimes they have trouble getting my veins
right and I am afraid of needles but I keep trying because
people need it. My mom and dad when they were in the
hospital both needed blood. So did one of their poor church
guys who had part of his arm taken off while haying. So
anyway...I give.
peace

next time is a gallon!

 

I did about twice but the second time in 2003, they got a false positive for hepatitis C so I don't know if I can or after how many years if at all.

 

i donate once a year with my schools blood drive. but when i get a real state issued ID or a drivers license, i'll probably donate more.
