rewatched the video of phil’s (one of the many) near-death experience where he was saved by a blood transfusion, and i was inspired to donate blood!
it was surprisingly easy and quick to sign up, i booked last night for a donation this morning. all the staff at the donation centre was so nice and friendly, talking with them really helped with my anxiety. i was really dizzy afterwards for a good half an hour, they kept me there and fed me so many snacks lol (one of the nurses walked me to the toilet and waited outside for me, in case i faint inside😭)
i started to feel better after the snacks and drinks, and went back home. been lying in bed for the rest of the day, feeling a bit weird and fatigued (which is common for first timers) but i’m so happy that I did this, yay!
thank you dan and phil for influencing me to do good things, hehe <3
