We have a friend who donates her blood platelets on a regular basis. The process is a real time commitment. The least we can do is donate blood. I thought it was going to be an in/out kinda thing but there is all sorts of screening beforehand and you have your vitals checked out long before they stick the needle in.
Once we were cleared to donate and caught up on our CNN Headline news Peggi and I sat next to each other in big barbershop style chairs. We each had a nurse drawing blood and they made a contest out of it. I filled the vessels above in four minutes and thirteen seconds.
