Thumbs up If you can't give cash give blood

There is an urgent need for blood right now and it cost you nothing to help others. Of course not all people can give blood, but it cost nothing and can help save a life. It's relatively painless and takes usually less than an hour depending on the line.

I did once, for an aunt of a close friend who needed blood after a major operation. I've been donating blood every year since then.

(The giant needle hurts the first time but is something that can get used to.)

I also used to do 'blood apheresis' but they found some wacky stuff in my blood so I can't donate anymore. Why not go the whole route and get on the bone-marrow list?
