My blood type is O negative and my first year of college I started donating and learned my blood was in demand. I was a regular donor but because of fainting after a couple donations they tried me on just half bags but then my iron dropped too low so I had to quit. Many years later I tried again but my iron was still too low to donate. I've been meaning to ask about plasma donation. Maybe that's something I could do. I suspect this episode will nudge a lot of people in the direction of donating. Thanks for talking about it.
