Hi there! Wow that's a nice charity to do, donate blood. I know some who does it regularly. But I've never tried it. I'm scared of needles hehe.

Hi subha, it's so nice to know that you had done a really good deed by donating blood yesterday Yeah, I had donated blood several times before. I usually would donate blood when come across any blood donation campaign held in our place. Hopefully the blood donated that kept in the blood bank could help those who need it urgently at anytime. As far as I know donating blood could help to promote our blood circulation as well as to accelerate the metabolism of our body Take care and happy posting

Hello subha. I have never donated blood because I am very afraid of seeing blood and I feel dizzy seeing it. Also I am afraid of any injection as it is so painful. I think that you are brave enough to do that and I think that I must learn from you. Take care.

Good for you. Until last year, I have donated my blood three times. I remember th first time I went for blood donation. I went with three other of my friend,and I'm the only one pass to able to donate my blood. I felt scared, but still I did it. I heard so many things happen after you donated your blood, like you felt weak, and you can also gain weight but I don't think any of it happen to me. I am glad I have did it nad my father really encouraged me to do it.

That's a good thing Subha. I really appreciate. The blood we give gets replenished very soon and you are lucky for there are many who do not cater to the criterion.

That is wonderful that you were able to do this. I have done this a couple of times before also. I did for others and also did it for myself when I had surgery too. My husband has also donated blood to me.

Oh yes and it is a great jesture to do it, there are so many in our area that need blood just from auto accidents. I don't know how it is where you are but here if you give blood, you get to list 3 of your relatives that if they need blood in the next year, it will be donated to them free. MY 3 children stay on my list. It doent' hurt and a good thing to do for others. Thank you for being so kind.

Hello subha12 donation of blood is a noble work and i think ever one should donate blood for betterment of human life. I am also donating blood occasionally. It is also good for health as physician told. But before donating blood some precautions are required to be taken. pkc3000

I have always wanted to donate blood but I cant for medical reasons. I was also told that if someone has a tattoo they cant donate either. I do regret not donating blood when I was younger and had the chance to do it.
