I found myself in an unusual situation this week, I had to go into hospital for an unexpected blood transfusion and received 2 units of blood. I had been a donor for many years but never expected to be on the receiving end. I expect many people on here are donors but if you have been thinking about doing it and keep putting it off please just do it.
For those old enough to remember Tony Hancock he said something like 'Its just like an ordinary bank, put it in when your flushed, take it out when you need it.'

Sorry to here that I hope you are ok now

U used to be a regular donor, with about 15 deposits, but due to my frequent trips to Nigeria they won't accept my blood anymore. Never had to make any withdrawals luckily.

Used to donate too, easy process and very worthwhile.

No longer possible with epilepsy and the medication.
