Gave Blood Today

Post by Lefty »

Then I proceeded to happy hour. I have a nice buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I am rehydrating with water on the side. I remember the old days in the Coast Guard they would give you half a day off if you gave blood. We would all do it then find a happy hour. :rotfl:

Hummy, I like to give double red cells. this last time I couldn't give it because my iron level was just a little low. Double red gives them twice the blood they can use right away. Because they already separate the blood. They return your plasma so you don't have to wait.

Again, power to you, that's awesome :thumb:

Can't do it. If it was a friend or family I'd make myself, beyond that my mental blocks are too strong.
