I just got a letter from the blood bank saying they’d be thrilled to have my blood again.

I’m going to India in one week.

The iron supplements make me feel weird and I don’t really wanna take them during my vacation. I have to take them for 20 days.

On the other hand, the my next opportunity to give blood, because India is apparently full of disease, will be six months from when I get home.

So how much is my comfort worth?

(I am AM+, and I doubt there’s any lack of blood for patients who can accept all blood types, but is that like a real reason or is it a lazy comfortable reason?)
