BLOOD... We have it, we need it, we can share it…read more Remember those carefree days, as a kid, when blood took on a whole new meaning? Your first bloody nose. A bruised & bloody knee, looking to mom for sympathy. Pricking your finger to become blood brothers/blood sisters. As an adult, we can still become blood brothers/sisters. With a whole lot more people! Sure, we won't get to practice secret handshakes. Or meet in treehouses. But the meaning is more powerful than ever! My girl, I call her my Fav Fab One, we love to give blood. It's the right thing to do. Paying it forward. Plus, you just never know there might come a day when you are on the receiving end of that bag of blood. This month was my birthday. That time of getting high fives, gifts and celebrations. We were visiting the grand opening of a new restaurant in town when we spotted The Big Red Bus sitting in their parking lot. We ran into Michelle inside, who invited us to donate. Without hesitation, we figured we'd eat, then we'd grab a seat, in the bus. If just felt right to give a gift. A gift of blood. We had NO IDEA that giving blood would be SO MUCH FUN! For when we stepped outta the Florida heat and took our seats, we were greeted by the Tag Team of Julio & Nick! These guys should go on tour. Comedy! Action! Even though we were laughing and having a bloody good time, we knew for sure we were in good hands, too. Funny, how you can be totally professional while being absolutely endearing. That's the atmosphere we were in. Oh, us and one other donor, I'll call her Paige. Thankfully, we all were on the same 'page' so NO ONE was offended or upended. Giving blood. Feeling good. Having fun. And even some parting gifts as their way of saying Thanks! It truly was a 'gifted' experience.

I walked into the One Blood location on Countyline Road in Spring Hill, and I was greeted with a…read morefriendly Hello! and I stated I wished to donate blood. I was given a questionnaire to fill out, and then we exchanged the form with a tablet to answer more health questions. My blood pressure was taken, and my iron count was taken. We walked into the donation area, where I sat in a donation chair, and the donation routine began to take my blood. After about 8-10 minutes, I was finished and got up and left the facility. The technician was friendly and was very good at inserting the donation needle into my arm. There was some informal conversation, and it was a very nice experience. I have been here many times before, and I will return when I can donate again. I've been donating blood since 1969 and feel I am giving life to people who need this to survive.

They give you soda and snacks, free t-shirt and whatever else they have free available at the time. I received a free ticket to the strawberry festival. The person who drew my blood was absolutely amazing older woman. We ended up talking about prostitutes in Portland, OR at one point. Great conversation by the way! After giving blood I started to feel light headed and getting a cold sweat, nearly blacked out. (It tends to happen with me because the blood takes FOREVER to get out of me and especially when I haven't donated in awhile, so it probably wont happen to you). Once they noticed it, they were right on top of it with a wet cloth on my forehead and neck. They brought down my chair so I was lying down and held the sprite for me to drink it and got me a rice crispies treat until it went away. This was the best place to give blood I have been to so far! ADORED it. Everyone go donate NOW!

Cuz i need that type of money while i wait for someone to decided to hire me. I signed up easily through the app. Saw the promo $650 buck for first donators n i got excited for it. I got there with a wave of people expecting the same thing. A las it takes 8 visits to get the 650 whole. The good news is that they pay you in chunks. Instead of waiting for the lump sum. I can understand why this place has low reviews but it wast as rough as other people stated. It is a long process if you are new donor n it looks like way longer if u keep coming back. Theres two lines, i came 1.5 hours earlier thinking i needed to fill paperwork. Nope, they bump me up cuz someone didn't show, the first young miss took me it for picture n recruitment file, second one took my quick vitals. Found out i shrunken 3 inches!! Or their scale is wacked. Eh no biggie. Then i went to the computer to get asked the exact same question over n over again in different ways. Took me 30-45 mins to complete cuz the questions are a bit cray cray. Then i moved to the Medical Madam, that took too long cuz we started chatting each other up lol but she did her obligations fine. She gave me snacks and a pediasure! Yum Listen to my heart, hear my lungs, answer stuff etc. when i got to the plasma machines? The nurses had a hard time getting my veins to cooperate. The second madam also but i still got paid for showing up. So win win lol i will try again later this week. I really want the rest of that $650. They gave me a debit card where i got my money already sent. App looks neat. I recommend you bring a hoodie for the plasma area. Its cold there, eat big meals 1-2 hours before coming. Drink fluids like a fish. I had a pleasant visit, im always positive creature so no matter where i go, i bring joy lol See ya next time
