I donate wheneever I can, which is every 90 days I think...
I think its a great cause, I heard in Australia, for every 2 people that donate blood, 82 people need it......Pretty bad. |

Sadly, one of my true fears is that of needles. So, I tend not to donate blood. Besides, once you become a lawyer, they remove all your blood along with your heart.

How old do you have to be to give blood? Does it vary in different countries?

I do it about every time I can. I think it is about a month and a half between donations (8 times per year). They say every time you donate 4 lives are saved.

I would like to donate blood but I cannot. I just can`t stand all the needels and wathing it how it`s going into my body. Also it hurts a little. Maybe one day if I get more courage I will donate.
