a month ago i had 14 vials of blood drawn in the space of about 24 hours. when they drew the second batch of 7 vials i handled it quite maturely by bursting into tears. i did feel like i was going to lose my breakfast and the room would never stop spinning — but really? full-blown crying that i couldn’t stop even when they were done and i was leaving the hospital? seriously?

seriously.

tonight more blood is being taken from my person. let’s hope the process goes a bit more smoothly.

and while we’re on this topic — i’m never donating blood simply to be a good person. nope, never.

  1. I’m praying for you!!! I don’t blame you for crying, that’s a lot of blood!

    p.s. I can’t donate blood because my iron levels are too low!
