Why do we call it donating? It's selling. I have no moral objection to it or anything, I just think it's a strange way to phrase it. I guess it's more palatable that way.

Even if you don't need money for selling plasma, I would encourage anyone to donate blood whenever you can. It's easy, relatively quick, and it gives life.

Blood that angels here on Earth donated saved my mom's life on a operating table and help her survive chemotherapy. They will always have my deepest gratitude.

Many thanks to all you donors out there! It's truly one of the greatest gifts you can give.
