10 Gallons
It wasn't until after I donated platelets today that I realized I had donated 10 gallons. For me, thats 40 donations, since I donate either double or triple platelets each time. So, they gave me a t-shirt, a cool clear glass coffee mug, and topped it off with balloons.
I am telling this to all of you to encourage you to donate if you can. I don't do this for money or fame. I don't do it for a t-shirt or a mug (although it was fun to get). I do it because it is the right thing to do. The 40 donations isn't even all of them. It is just since I moved to the Sacramento area. Prior to moving here, I donated through the Red Cross in the SF Bay Area, and in the Los Angeles area. I know a lot of you donated after 9/11. Well, blood is needed NOW. Donate if you can.
