Keep pushing yourself. Be patient with yourself. Learning takes time and perseverance. Enjoy the process.

Well, not all of us is low blood all the time.

 

So its up to you to figure out whether you really can offer to donate.

 

And for those who couldnt donate due to whatever reasons.

 

That thought to donate or offer support will be most appreciated.

Hmmmm..........

 

Most times, after I cleared the registration, will always go over to the rest area to take lots of magazines before I go in for the actual donation.

 

And after I climb onto the bed/chair, I will start to put my arm out and start reading the mags.

 

By the time the nurse came around, I will tell them: "I dont want to see, just do your stuffs and let me know when to squeeze the ball.'

 

And then.....I will engross myself into the mag and by 20+ mins or so....I am done and have to stop flipping the mag to hold down the cottonwool to stop any more bleeding.

 

Usually when the 1st needle go in...my face will turn white and twitch a bit so I know I shouldn't stare at where it will frighten me more.

 

There is nothing to be 'pai seh' about. Even experienced donar also have times when they are too reactive to the sight, sounds and sensations.

Another thing to remind everyone.

 

If you just had an accident or any surgery. You are not allowed to donate blood untill 3 months after it all.

 

For those who recently have peircing or tattoos also. You are restricted from donating blood for a year.

Well, its an old practise that is suppose to be removed.

 

But yes. I still do have some priority when I go Polyclinic to see doctor.

And they will even assign me a female doctor even when I didnt request it.

Some private clinics also honour the blood donars.

 

I remember I once got a discount for my consultation fees. 15% discount.

step one: open mouth

 

step two: say you are blood donar, got discount or not?

 

step three: when they say no, whine and act pityful.
