My last donation was last year. Here's why. I know it's always cold there and I prepare. It was December and I had on fleeced lined jeans, a t shirt, sweat shirt and fleece vest. I also brought my blanket and heated gloves. They provided me a warm blanket which I very much appreciated. Somewhat later I started shivering, like hyperthermic shivering. I ask if I could please get another blanket and I was told "Our policy is only one blanket" I continued to get colder (platelet donations take hours) and I asked if I could PLEASE get another blanket. Response, I will, but not everyone would this for you. Haven't been back since and I can't find a way to share my concern with the Red Cross itself or that donation center.
