Has successfully donated just under a pint of blood for the first time!! After a LONG time worrying and fretting over this (having never needed blood tests etc), I walked into The Forum nervously, and came out gleaming :) Of course I cried like a complete baby when I lied down, (I can't stand needles! Blood I am OK with!) and ended up with the whole room of nurses giving me sympathetic smiles, "awwws" and "are you OK?s". You wouldn't think I was a 19 year old! But I got through it, and it barely even hurt - the needle itself just felt like a scratch.
And there is nothing more satisfying than knowing you have helped to save a person's life.
