giving blood


I gave blood for the first time tonight. When Kyle was in the hospital he was give almost 50 pints of blood/blood product. I had never given before because I did not weigh enough. I don't have that as an excuse anymore, so when they asked in Sunday School if anyone would like to give blood I signed up. I was a little nervous, but it was not bad at all. I did not know all that went into giving blood. You have to answer a million questions, have your temperature checked, blood pressure and pulse check and have your finger pricked all before they tell you if you can really give any blood. I passed all the "test" so I was able to give. I am glad I gave and will donate again.
