I have donated once before, and am due for another donation on the 20th of May =) My blood group is A-POS, which I think is a common blood type, but still an important one to donate, as many people with this blood type end up in a position where they require a blood transfusion. In Australia, we are require to wait 12 weeks between donations, so I don't know if I could always donate in an urgent time, but I plan to donate whenever I can =)

I'd like to be able to donate at any time, I'd probably donate once a month or so if I could, but as it stands, it' still 12 weeks between donations, so I'll have to live with that =)

Because we don't particular when we can donate our blood but when ever any person wants blood and it is always good chance for to give them because if we help some one it gives so much happiness for us.

I try to donate my blood as often as I can as I believe in helping people and besides, it's a good way to cleanse my body by getting rid of the older blood so that new blood can be produced. =)

we can donate our per year four times because we need to wait for reproduce our blood and donate some one so it takes hardly 3 months after than we can donate some other person so i am thinking to donate my blood every months in this month on words so is it good idea?

You donated so many times when you were in school and i think it is not good to donate when we were in around 15 years so after 18 years we can donate number of times.
