Have you ever donated blood? Yeah, I have :) Today, I did it and it was my 5 times!
When I first donated blood, I was still in my high school. But before experiencing it, I already knew about blood donation, because my mother was a blood donor. As you know, when an event is held, a mobile blood bank comes there. Then, doctors and nurces in a Red Cross Society appeal to many people to donate blood. Even when there are no events, a mobile blood bank comes to schools or offices regularly. My mother always gathered informations about these opportunities, and she never missed them. As far as I know, she has experienced blood donation more than 30 times. And she got a souvenir! (I don't remember clearly, but I don't think it was a useful thing...)
I was really wondering why my mother did such a thing many times, though she might feel pain. So, I asked her. Then, she said, "Just because I like it!" I couldn't believe it. I asked her again if she really liked it, and this time, she said, "Yeah, it's true. But not only because I like it. My blood will save someone! That's wonderful, isn't it? Actually I feel pain when donating blood, but that doesn't matter much, thinking it will save someone's life!" I was surprised very much to hear that, but at the same time, I was proud of my mother. And I decided to be a blood donor like her.
Recently, the number of blood donors has been decreasing. This is a serious problem. There are a lot of possibilities that we have an accident, and need a blood transfusion. It is a problem really familiar to us. So, let's be a blood donor! :)

Hi Yuri!
I have donated twice before.
I agree with you, it is very important to participate!
So let's continue(^-^)
Hello, Ayako :)
Actually, I felt pain because a hypodermic needle was sooooo big!
But I think you should try it and know the pain :P
Hello, Mio :)
Yes, I'll continue it!
I'm looking forward to watching your video of dance!!!
Hello Yuri,
I've never experienced it, because I thought it's somenoe else's problem and it's a bit scary. Using or donating other's blood still has many problems, doesdn't it? But it might be better to research and donate than not to do anything.
I maybe try it the next chance.
Hey Yuri*
Yeah, we did blood donation! It was my first time so I was very nervous... but you know, I am soooo nice and sweet person, so it was OK(*^o^*) Let's do it again in January!
