Blood Donation Day, 11/07/2012


Finally, the blood donation day has arrived. It has been a year since the last time, I donated my blood. I felt so bad whenever I come across the poster stating the day to donate. Right now, I recovered from my flu which was a few weeks ago and have no medication since that flu. I am ready for it.

Everything went well. However, during the donating when the bag was almost full, I felt giddy, cold sweat and almost passed out. It was my first time to have this stupid feeling when this is my 4th time to do my donation. I felt so sad and disappointed.

Going forwards, I make sure I have enough rest, fluid and food before I head to another donation.  Anyway, I got the complimentary free travel by SMRT and badges. =)

Still I won’t give up donating because not everyone is suitable to donate blood even if they intend to. I am just lucky to be one of the donor. My blood can save at most to 3 lives.
