Because his religion does not allow blood transfusions or something? So - that having been said, I would only give my precious blood to Jim Henson or the like. If Nick Frost or Clint Eastwood or Ewan McGregor needed some blood - I'll be there. But I won't give my lovely cells to just any old rif-raff.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01742596776766655879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934975272308114639.post-39475043876533960472007-08-16T02:37:00.000-07:002007-08-16T02:37:00.000-07:00I was uncomfortable with the idea of allowing some...I was uncomfortable with the idea of allowing something of my body to be removed at first too. However after the first few minutes I realised just how silly that was.<BR/><BR/>It's just blood. It's a universal fluid. I don't care about saving my sweat. I don't think a camera is going to steal my soul. I don't care about losing a unit of blood in a manner that is painless and safe.<BR/><BR/>As for being scared of needles I say just deal with it. If you were in a car accident would you rather die than recieve blood? Well what if I was in a car accident? Would you let me die rather than give it?Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245283083057855592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934975272308114639.post-82953872028275395032007-08-15T23:05:00.000-07:002007-08-15T23:05:00.000-07:00I'm afraid of needles and the sheer though of havi...I'm afraid of needles and the sheer though of having life- fluid sucked out of me scares me to near hysterics.<BR/>So there.<BR/>Oh. . .and I need my soapbox back.<BR/>But I'm proud that you went to do it. What is your blood type? Are you super rare? Why can they not make blood by now? They can grow ears on the backs of mice - they can't simulate blood? Chop chop, scientists! We're waiting!Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01742596776766655879noreply@blogger.com
