To stave off the hunger I grabbed some cookies to eat while I donated. Noone said anything, but I think I was eating them in the wrong spot of the clinic. One of the nurses talked to a couple of the volunteers, and they kept looking over at me. Oops.
The donation went well as always, and I hurried through the cookies and juice so I could get home for dinner.
One thing that struck a chord with me was one gentleman that was at the cookies was telling everyone about a bine marrow donation that he made to a young girl who was only a few months old. The girl was now 5 years old, and he was showing her picture.
It got me to thinking about stepping up to bone marrow donation as well. I will think about that one a little more. I am going to read up on that too.
