My first time
Earlier today I donated blood at Children's Hospital. I'm not too fond of having some strange nurse needle me here and there but I could say it was for a good cause. My kid cousin is going to have an open Heart surgery in about a week so and needed 4 blood donors just in case something went wrong I suppose.
I felt dumb when I couldn't answer the nurse's question when she asked what kind of operation my cousin was going to have. To be quite frank, I don't really socialize with that family. In fact, I resent them all. I could bitch and complain on what they have done to me over the years but I just hate having to keep up bringing up sad shit all of the time but anyway, I received a call from my uncle last night asking me if I was interested in donating blood. Of course I couldn't decline so I had to go along with it and wake up shit early today in order to get drained at the hospital.
My experience was comfortable, the nurses treated me like a queen (no shit, since they can probably sell off my blood for thousands if it it's not used. I don't mind them using it on patients who need it but I always worry that some rich kid will get the blood rather then a low income patient, I guess I worry about stuff too much) anyway, the nurses were sweet as candy! They kept bringing me cookies and juice while I recovered from the blood draining(haha sounds scary!).
I felt kinda tired all day long but I blame that on my lack of sleep. After donating blood I realized I should do it more often. I'm thinking about donating blood at least once a year now. I dunno, it felt good being able to help someone out, regardless if they are rich or poor.
