Yeah I'm in the same boat. If you lived in Europe during a certain time period you aren't allowed to donate. I'm A+ too...

I try to donate about once every 8 - 10 weeks. The blood bank likes my donations as I am CMV free so new borns can use my blood.

Speaking of donating blood a friend of mine and I were just discussing this. We donate and they sell it for a HUGE price in the hospital. Who gets that $$$

Donated for someone I know who was having hip replacement surgery a few weeks ago.


Donating again on Aug. 7

Banking some karma points for all the people I put in the hospital as a young fart.
(I had/ have anger management issues)


For those who can donate but won't for pvssy reasons hope when you or a loved one need blood some one tells you the same thing ,I can't needles scare me or some crap like that.
