no blood for you!

holly commented:I know, I am the same way. I was really surprised when I went to donate (as I had done fairly regularly) and they turned me away. The funny thing is that I donated several times after I had come back from my semester in London, they instituted that rule in 1999. I am not sure which is scarier - that I may have some secret mad cow disease or that I may have passed it on in my infected blood for 3 years before they changed the rules and figured out that this could be dangerous. Guess it's time to start donating money to research on how mad cow disease secretly lives in people....on Mon Feb 25 10:02:05 2008 |
Jason commented: You should have asked. I would've told. (about the rules) I just did the research recently to see if I was OK to donate. Thankfully, I am -- no mad cow disease for me b/c I didn't get to Scotland until January 2007. Also, my journeys in Egypt didn't take me to any of the forbidden spots.on Mon Feb 25 14:45:02 2008 |
