That is the case. I have been in the chair for over two hours when the iron level in 16.2 or +.

I was only on the chair yesterday for about 95 minutes as you say.

No sign of Mary yesterday. It was good to see an excited Ann though. She has been around for years at the One Blood mobile units.

Next donation is whole blood at the Fire Station on CR44. The Parrothead Drive on January 5, 2017.

Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.
