Blood donor

My son in law went to donate blood today so I went with him. I used to be a donor ages ago but had to stop due to anaemia and low blood pressure. This time I only just squeaked through. I couldn't help thinking of my mother and all the blood she'd needed in her last year so I felt like I was giving something back

A great shot of you doing what many more should be doing.

@ludwigsdiana Thank you. Yes it is important to help keep our blood banks stocked up if one is healthy enough to meet the criteria. I think these days each unit of blood can save quite a few lives ...

Lovely photo of you. Whenever I think of donating, I haven’t eaten...I need to be more organised.

this is a lovely portrait - and that you know you are doing something important is probably partly why

PS do you need a profile pic change - cos this would do!

[Margo]

Good on you Desi. am thinking I should give again

Good for you and very nice photo! A good reminder for those that can donate. Al is a regular donor too. I can’t because of an arthritis medicine I’m on, which is a bummer because I used to.

Well done - you're a good person. Thank you.
