Donating Blood

I can't.

Apparently if you're British you can't donate in this country due to FDA rules about possible vCJD contamination.

I don't. I don't like being pricked

I was able to for awhile, but then since I was born in Sweden and lived there until I was 4, they wouldn't let me donate anymore due to potential vCJD contamination. Although recently they changed the rules, and I can donate blood again.

I've given blood twice, first time I bruised really badly, second time I passed out. I'm not even bothered about the sight of blood. So I don't do it anymore.

No one can have my blood till I'm dead. Then they can have whatever they want.

I do so on occasion; fortunately, Canada hasn't been blacklisted yet--if CDC does that, game over.

I did it. Then later that day I passed out at the top of the stairs, fell down them, and had to get stitches just...below...my eye. Yikes. I haven't gotten up the balls to do it again since then...

ugh when I was back in the hospital back in December I donated a lot of blood almost every day they would come and take a sample of my blood... I got a tonne of bruises on my arms...
