Success!

After being turned away the last three times, I was finally able to donate blood again today! I tried to donate three times within a span of two weeks about 6 weeks ago, but each time my iron count was just under the minimum requirement. Today, my iron level was more than adequate, and I was able to donate my one pint for the day.

I also found out today that I've reached my One Gallon mark since I began donating about 1-1/2 years ago. That's pretty cool.

I was so happy that I was able to donate again today. It's good to know that this is a little something I can do to help make a difference somewhere.
