Do You Donate Blood?

I do. I have lost track of how many gallons I have donated because I donate to 2 organizations...I received this and it made me feel good

Your Whole Blood donation was a perfect match for a patient in need and was sent to Baptist Health. Thank you for giving the gift of life!

I give regularly. I have to remember to switch up the arms as I didn't realize using the same one every two months was scarring it up. Thought it had to be much more frequently than that to cause track marks.

@ineedadrink Professionals can often do a much neater job with a needle. Hoever, that donor needle is a much bigger bore that a disposable syringe😷
