Blood donation

I've finally donated blood! I've actually wanted to to it for a long time but at least in Sweden you can not give blood until you're 18, and so when I just recently turned 18 I gave a couple of blood samples to see if my blood was good enough to donate. Not to long after I got a letter calling me to donate blood. So today was my first time. It took maybe 2 hours with preparations and all. I also got to know what blood type I have, turns outs it's 0 negative, which is great to donate since it can be received by all blood groups. However can I only receive 0 negative myself... Either way it was fun and it really feels like I've made a difference, someone might actually get a second chance to live partly because of my blood. Also, here in Sweden one receives 30kr when you donate but you can give it to a help organization while there. I decided to donate my 30kr to the Swedish union for blood disease because it made me think of a friend who has a blood disease.

 

The picture is of the note I got after giving blood together with the dietary supplements  everyone who donated blood get to help recover from the blood loss.
