I gave blood today. I surprised even myself when I decided that being squeamish was no excuse not to. My last blood donating experience was my senior year of high school when – due to a bulky jean, turtleneck, sweater combo – I just barely met the weight minimum. I remember being helped up off the gym floor after passing out ………..and eating MANY Lorna Doone shortbread cookies. Well I would say today was much more successful as the weight minimum is no longer an issue and I remained conscious the entire time. There were no shortbread cookies but Nutter Butters suit me just fine. And it feels good to know that I will have helped someone, somewhere, someday.





I’m proud of you!
Good job Fleh. I like the new Blog look!
I do recall the first incident….has enough time passed that we can look back on that and laugh yet? Glad it went better the second time around!
