7/22/2016 Attempted Platelet Donation.
Seems I have some difficult veins in my left arm to use for phlebotomists' needle sticks. That and supposedly if you are nor properly hydrated that is also a problem.
I will take another stab at it soon. Up to 12.125 gallons now and I did get a few rewards for attempting to donate. And got to joke around with the staff there. Last edited by Taltarzac725; 07-24-2016 at 02:19 PM. |

I do dumbell curls (25 pounds) everyday to keep my veins as large as I can. Really helps.

I have to take Beau to some dog park or other before I get there as well as have lunch and the rest of it. A pooch is great therapy though and sometimes helps with all the anger built up from the many set-backs I have had with the 224 613 Project. Google Taltarzac725. I hope Juanita is still working there? She is kind of amusing at times. |

This is me with my dog Sport from around 2013. Picture taken by the very amusing Grace. Someone I always enjoyed talking to a great deal. Sport passed in April of 2014 and we got Beau about 5 days after that. My 224 613 Project seems to be known by the staff at One Blood unless I am mistaken. I sometimes read people in a much too positive light. Last edited by Taltarzac725; 07-31-2016 at 08:42 AM. |
