First of all, yes, I've donated blood several times and felt fine afterwards. I am not scared of needles, in fact, I look at the needle when I am being poked and I watch the blood flow into the bottle
There are always snacks, juices, and t-shirts to look forward to, and I have never worn any of those t-shirts
About the bone marrrow, I attended a 14-Aug concert earlier this month and parents of a 13-years old girl were there urging people to register and give sample of their DNA to see if they can help their daughter. My wife and I registered. They said that they will use the BLOOD and they will NOT use the traditional method (whatever that is) to get the marrow. As long as they take my blood, I am okay and that's why we registered. If my blood cells (attributes or whatever) match and I can save a life, I would be pleased.
