4th today 🩸

Think I'm one more away from my first medal?

Also pretty neat custom bandage tape this time, sporting their iconic blood mascot

This afternoon I'm donating platelets again, for the first time in over 5 years. It feels good to be able to do this again. I csn't donate as much money to good causes as I would like to, but I can do this.
It's a slightly odd experience having your blood removed and then pumped back in. Especially as the blood is slightly cool when it comes back.

Blood test in the morning. They say they’ll just need a smear.
So I told ‘em "It may be just a smear to you mate, but that's life and death to some poor wretch!"

UA: Сьогодні отримав перший досвід в донорстві крові. Процерура була не повністю комфортною, але мене після процедури пригостили соком, шоколадкою та пляшкою водою 😊

EN: Today I've got an experience of blood donation. This process had been not fully comfortable, but after that I was treated with juice, chocolate and bottle of water 😊

Just found out my Dad has received around 4 blood transfusions recently so - a big thank you to Red Cross Life Blood and the anonymous blood donors in particular. Thank you.

3rd personal today, but my first time at the Bloodbank@HSA in Outram

Neat that they grant donors complimentary meals from the cafe right next to it

I'm off to donate blood today. I'm a regular donor but this one is special because my father has received a good many transfusions in hospital over the past few days. (He has anaemia, a blood infection, latent myeloid leukaemia and a bunch of other weird unexplained blood stuff going on.)

So it feels right to give back today. I mentioned this to one of the Drs, and somehow it came out in conversation that I was -0 and CMV non-reactive.

"Ah," said the doctor,
"Your blood won't be going to someone like your Dad. They give your blood to babies."

To babies? Oh the responsibility!

I just gave blood and I'm so proud I want everyone to know it and to do the same. Or platelets!

wnd.com/2023/03/proposal-ban-d A proposed Montana Bill would BAN individuals who received the COVID vaccine from donating blood & make it a misdemeanor with a $500 fine to donate or accept blood from vaccinated donors. -19

I am a and today, when I went in for my 3x/year donation of double red cells, I was surprised with this mug.

10 gallons. This is Texas, a hat might be appropriate.

@diemure Definitely... and i don't even have rare blood. I wish Red Cross would lower their hemoglobin threshold a bit.

I know the feeling! Low iron and a relatively rare type make for a bad combo. I always feel like I'm letting people down, if my blood can't be used 🥲

Also, not a single person working the drive is masked. Most of those donating are not masked. It's me and one other person.

Folks are gonna rue the day.

It's a Chriskwanzakah miracle: I just squeaked by the hemoglobin test and kicked out a pint of premium vaccinated blood for the Red Cross! It's been forever since I managed to have an acceptable iron level for them, so this feels like a victory.
