This is something I have wanted to do for a long time, but I've been afraid (of the needle). As a nurse, I've infused a lot of blood & seeing first hand how it affects my patients, I told myself to suck it up & go donate. If you can donate, you should! So I made a resolution this year to donate blood & mom took me today! I was there for probably two hours; there were some minor difficulties. She didn't get my vein the first time & my blood wasn't flowing fast enough. It wasn't the best first time experience, but it wasn't so bad that I'll never do it again. In fact, the next drive is August 14 & I plan to go!
