Successful blood donation #1

High enough iron. No mutant meds. Blood pressure just made the cutoff.

The guy who took it was so gentle, especially when I halfway passed out. After 5 hours of blood-drawing from donors, he said the quantity collected could probably support like two trauma patients.

Isn’t it weird that we have to forcibly pump out our extra blood? And then sometimes it all gushes out on its own when we need it? I would say bodies are stupid, but they are amazing.
