Hannah4181 260 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I tried 3 times and each time got the poxy training nurse who ballsed it up and left me in lots of pain and very bruised. The last attempt she dropped something and my blood gushed everywhere, rather embarassing!! I am however looking into my dog donating blood at the moment, notice up in the vets the other day asking for volunteers! Going in to see them next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had a nice Schaeffer pen and a certificate for 50 "pints" a while ago. Next one will be #63 I think. The things you do for a free tea and biscuits!! Keep up the donating stokie, but have your breakfast mate.definatly will do mate i thought i was f***ing dead. while i was having my brew and biscuits some guy said hes surprised i even woke up at all for how hard the nurse slapped me. they always on at me for my blood though as im O rh neg so anyone can have it no matter what blood group they are. for those who are as common as muck and are male with big veins they are asking for them to volunteer to donate platelets which can be done every 4 weeks because your blood is returned back to you just less the platelets. im also on the bone marrow reg after a mtes little en got childhood leukemia. i wasnt a match but they did find one for him and hes doin okay now.

SportingShooter 0 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Around % ( I Think) of people are O type. Some are Rh + some are Rh - + is the most common. - is not as common but can be transfused to almost all. The rarer blood types are used for healing and helping Babies in incubators and for repairing cells for younger people with Vile diseases. Anyones Blood Donation goes to a good cause Quote Link to post Share on other sites
