OT: Do you donate blood, platelets or plasma? 6-Jun-2011 At 12:42:18 PM Wollemi
Message
Whole blood only. 55+ donations over many years, and have been running alone within 3hrs of donating. Have also commenced a 17 day bushwalk within 36hrs of donating. They don't condone this stuff.

Recall the fruit juice beforehand and exotic frankfurts afterwards. Now just water followed by milk-shakes. Sorta concerned at this commercialisation of the ARCBS, evidenced by moving to an industrial area of Penrith, well away from Nepean Hospital where it appeared an apt place to be. They claim donations are up noticeably where they are now.
ARCBS also reduced the number of trained nurses working there, for financial reasons.
