How could anybody be against donating blood? It saves lives.

Who says everyone's life is worth saving? What if there's a reason that person is dying? You know..., Karma.

I donate blood all the time... the Red Cross is constantly spamming my answering machine and mailbox.

I am all for donating blood.

My daughter who had Aplastic anaemia may not be here today if it was not for the 176 + blood transfusions she received.

Many people would not be alive today if it wasn't for blood donors .

Sooner or later, one in three of us will need it.

Also,

Please understand the importance of being honest when being tested for eligibility to donate.

Are you able to give your blood?

You never know who is getting your blood. What if it's a vampire? Would you then be related by blood?

I could not help but notice the lack of winky ;).........

There is in fact a vampires association.

Yes and people do donate blood to it.

But.....Most consenting donors are usualy significant others or friends.

But i could see how there could be a market for it among vampires.

No , i am not one of these vampires.............(:
