Donate blood as regular as i can. That weird feel when you're being drained.......I just look away. (needle and blood phobias)
Good cause , good cause

It's great that your a donor, and that you overcome your fear of needles to help out others.

Overcome? Not so much, i just need it less then they do. Heck it grows back (or whatever blood does).

I can't donate because I lived in germany in the late 70s and early 80s, I'm on the ban list, or I would donate. Sorry I can't help out

Well, it's great that you donate. That's what's important.

So spread the word! If you can't donate, getting others to consider it is the next best thing. Tell your friends to donate, or your family. I'm sure there's somebody you know who would be willing to donate.

Having trouble understanding what you meant, but you say you're an organ donor so thank you. I hope there are even more people out there willing to help those in need.

i donate blood as often as i can and have been on the organ donor register as soon as i could sign up.
My dad had a heart transplant 2 years ago and he is so much better. iv seen first hand how important this is. before it he couldn't walk 10m and now hes swimming and walking fine during the transplant he lost so much blood, so blood donations were a major part of his recovery.

I donate blood every time there's a blood drive at work and I'm an organ donor. I don't really understand why more people don't donate.

I've heard the argument that doctors are just going to let me die for the sake of donating my organs but it seems kinda conspiracy theory-ish to me.

Been giving blood since I was 17. Think Im about to hit the litre or gallon mark er whatever. The Vampires are always calling me because Im O+. Yes their number is saved on my phone as "Vampires." I used to be squeemish of the needles so I maned up and forced myself to watch them stick the needle in my arm and watch the blood leave me. >: ) *psycho moment over* They always miss my vein and adjust the needle in my arm, but I keep going back to them.

Also never understood the, not wanting to be an organ donor thing. If Im dead then I dont exactly need them anymore. Maybe like that one movie, I can live on through the lifes of the people that takes my organs.......

Good to hear for your father, it proves donations are extremely important.

Well, you're a bit right on the conspiracy theory. No doctor in the world is going to let a patient die for their organs, proof of that would be an extremely large malpractice lawsuit. They aren't going to just let a patient die, and they aren't going to just ask for your license or ask if you are a donor, there are many different people you need to go through before you can donate the organs after death.
