    :T Yaaay Kieren!!! Well done!

    I just made it in the door before it started hail and sleet here too! What stupid weather we are having. I really don't know how to dress Holly when we leave the house as you can't tell how it's going to end up! She is either too hot or under dressed.



    Ladies, make sure you keep your hand on your ha'penny:

    I cant give blood because I have had 4 transfusions, and am ever so grateful to everyone who does :D You all helped save my life xx


    Me too! :T :T:T

    My OH used to give blood but can't at the moment due to medication for his BP/kidneys
  • I gave blood on my 17th birthday and every time i got my call up letter right until I was pregnant with Charlie - think its about 20 donations so far. Now Reece is 11months I can donate again must look at next date.

    My mum & dad also donate, Dad is somewhere around 60+ donations and mum is around 40+ now

    IME they make it really difficult to give blood - I'm willing to do it but I'm not that determined. Twice I was turned away because they were too busy, twice I tried but my iron was too low to donate but not low enough for the doctors to care, then I was anemic enough to actually be ill so there was no point in trying. Next time I tried they were too busy and then they introduced a booking system. I booked an appointment but then they decided to cancel it. I figure if it's that difficult they can't be in that desperate need of donors.
