As a Brit I was excited to finally be able to donate blood. Was booked in for this morning but when I got there they said I couldn’t do it because I have too much iron in my blood (Haemochromatosis) and my GP needs to fill out a particular form so that I’m classed as a ‘therapeutic donor’ and not just a donor. Bit disappointing, but I was seeing the doc tomorrow anyway so I’ll ask him to do it.
It was funny to see the donor centre staff all dressed up for halloween including, of course, a vampire!
I think their costumes are worn every other day of the year and they’re actually secret vampires. They just take a little sippy sip per donation to fly under the radar and keep their operation secret.
