Donate that blood. Did you sign up for the thing where, if you go three times by the end of the year, they give you a Walkman? Cause I'm doing that. And if you go 25 times you get a pen and other shiny things. Yes, I'm a present-slut, what can I say?
Don't worry about the slow bleeding. I used to be like that, but I've got a lot faster now. Don't know why - sheer willpower I think. Though I used to go with a guy who could donate the full 370ml in about 5 minutes. If ever he cut an artery he was bleeding to death in *seconds*. So there, that's the good side - you now know that you'd bleed to death really slowly *g*.
Go you!
