A blood transfusion helped to save my life! I had an ectopic pregnancy. My fallopian tube burst, and blood spilled out into my gut. Doc said that I’d had only thirty minutes more of life if I had waited much longer than I did to go to him to find out why I had unexplained pain in my side. THANKYOU BLOOD DONERS! :heart:

Hi

Yes, they are amazing people.

Unfortunately my blood is so full of opiates it is dangerous.

Years ago I wanted to give blood, so went to Red Cross Day.
I have always had trouble with blood tests, as my veins are so small.
Well, me taking a table, them trying to insert the needle, then…waiting patiently for the draw to produce enough to get the bag 2/3 full so it is usable…
Three people came and went on the table beside me, and me taking up space…so I felt it was a public service for me NOT to donate blood and allow others to give three pints to my one. :innocent:It was my contribution :+1:

Well done. I would do similar tomorrow as that’s my birthday. Unfortunately I am not allowed to give blood. Living in France, I am banned because of the mad cow disease scare back three decades ago. The ban has never been lifted. Its probably a good thing as after more than ten years here my blood is 50% red wine. For the local population that is not sufficient.
