Give Blood
So I have joined the group of people who donate blood.
I’m already a donor, and now I’m also a blood donor.
It is something I had been thinking about but never got around to, and when The Swedish Pirate Party launched the campaign Sharing is Caring
I decided to join, so I went there and did the “intake test” where they ask you a whole bunch of questions, take blood samples etc.
And Yesterday I was there for the first time to give blood.
Pretty pain less actually, they give some sandwiches and Juice while you wait, then they drain 4.5dl of blood, that is approx 10% of the total amount in the body, and it all took some 30 minutes while the actual blood giving was only 10 minutes.
So I strongly encourage everyone to do the same, help your fellow humans and give blood.
And if you want to support the Sharing is Caring campaign at the same time then you can click the banner above, and register every time you donate.
