When I get in better shape here, I am going to be contacting you about this. I donated whole blood, platelets or plasma for years and always enjoyed it. I want start doing it again. My dream was to get a 55 gallon award and I am well on my way towards it.

Someday maybe I can get there. Ain't nothing to it, but to do it...

You can donate 6 gallons or so a year doing just platelets. You are allowed 24 platelet donations per year and they often take two units from me. A unit I believe is a pint or so. Some people they seem to take less from though.

Very nice people there. I have known one of the phlebotomists there since 2007 or so and not for NOTHING.
