Jettisoned Ponderings

Its been a year since I’ve been able to donate blood due to piercings, but I was finally able to yesterday. Being my 8th time I’ve done it, I got my 1 Gallon donor pin! Seems like a lot, but really it made me realize that I need to donate more often since its taken me a number of years to get in only 8 times when really I could be doing it a few times a year. I may also look into plasma and platelet donation in the future simply because since I’ve put the extra weight on I can donate more since its based on gender, age, bodyweight, etc. versus just taking a single pint at a time.
