[quote=Anonymous]I've been donating since I was 18. I don't have an issue with blood, but many people do and the donation process is set up to accommodate that. For one, you lie down while donating. You can't actually see the blood bag and don't have to see the needle in your arm either, depending on how you orient your head. When the donation is done they help you up, assist you to a table if you are unsteady on your feet, and they make you eat and drink before you leave - usually they provide crackers or cookies so if you prefer something healthier, bring a baggie with baby carrots or nuts or whatever you prefer. Thank you for considering it despite your phobia. Thanks for the thread too, it reminds me I need to schedule a donation as I'm overdue. [/quote]
