Are you willing to donate your blood...?

I have donated by blood only once...that was in a blood camp... It was my first donation... after i gave my blood i felt unconscious.... and it was the first time i felt so unconscious... something was pulling me from my brain.. and all of a sudden i felt down.. after some 10 mins i wake up to see my friends surrounded... i almost forgot where i was... That was my first experience... After that experience.. I thought maybe i was not fit to donate blood... I am thin.. and dont have much weight also... so maybe i should not donate my blood.... So I stopped donating blood... I have the blood camp card.. which can be used to ask for blood.. so that could help that strangers daughter.. thats the only waty i could help them...

I have never donate blood before because I am scared of the pain. It was my first time extracting blood when I went for checkup few months ago. Throughout the pregnancy monthly checkup, the nurse will extract blood from me time to time, and I am sort of overcome the fear. So, I believe if there is any emergency, I will donate my blood to the needy. Life is valuable.

I would definitely donate my blood to anyone in need. It does not cost me much to donate blood, just some time only. Of course if I am in good health that is a different story, otherwise I would donate not only to my relatives but even to strangers.

I try to donate blood each time the blood van comes by or close, I have seen news announcements on tv that says some child needs blood because of a disease that they have and the blood bank is running low, it I have a match I try to call and see where to donate. I think giving blood is the lifeline for all of us. It is also good for you go do as it replenishes our blood system. I have AB negative and it is a rare kind so they are always glad to get a pint from me. Please all that can please donate if the chance is given to you, you never know when it could be you who needs it.

I have an intense phobia of needles (I get cold sweats etc and high blood pressure if I have to have needles), but I would do it in that situation. In fact I did give blood for the first time this year. I am also vegetarian and you often hear we can't give blood - but my haemoglobin was ok so I could give it - they were a bit worried about my high blood pressure - but they said it is normal for people to have high blood pressure when they first give blood (so I was a little nervous).

I would but I can't. That's the problem. I have hepa-B which makes it impossible for me to become a blood donor so what I do instead is to organize a blood-letting program. If somebody I know approaches me for blood donation I just help look for blood donors.

In general, I think I do that when I donate blood to the blood donation agencies throughout the US

I'll probably say I will if I have enough and especially if it's a child! I can still get it back anyway just some few food with high in iron and vitamins!
