Do you donate blood? Why or why not?
I think that it's great to be able to donate blood, tissue, and organs. Unfortunately, my health condition and use of prescribed medication for this disorder prevents me from donating. With so many people who are in need of transfusion or organ donation, I think it's a valuable service. I think that with the screening technology available to health care agencies such as the Red Cross, they are able to spot potential abnormalities in donor blood or tissue before it's given to a particular patient in need.
I just answered this Featured Question; you can answer it too!
