When is the best time to give blood? The answer to that is anytime! Anytime you can donate blood, there will always bee someone who could use it.
Remember giving blood isn't about you, it is about the live you maybe saving. Heck, there are times the life you save could be your own. You just never know who that blood could be going to.

Great post. I love giving blood. There s something empowering and great feeling about being there and even potentially saving the life of a complete stranger. Everyone should do this, without excuse.
I give as often as allowed. It's great, because it's benevolent. YOu're saving lives. It's replenishable and the $ stays in your pocket. What you lose will be replenished and someone else truly gains.
Great message Todd! I give when I can and it is about saving lives.
One of my proudest moments is when the Red Cross gave me a 5-gallon pin, Todd. They included a "sample" of the people who had benefited. No easier way to help someone else!
Todd, great reminder for all of us!
Todd,
Great post.
I can't help but think about my brother Joe who at the first of this year received a pancreas and liver transplant. Joe's great now better than he's been in 40 years,
Blood is such a simple gift and you don;t have to die for it! If some people can be so gennorous at such a tradgic point in there lives, giving blood seems so simple!

Todd, this is a great reminder for all; but, since I had hepatitis, I can not give blood.
Hi Todd....Great Call to Action Post, we all forget to give blood and it's important. It an easy way to save lives.
Cheers, thanks for the reminder :O)
What a great idea to remind us all and our readers to give blood. Ok so it kind of sounds like a vampire but I am a bit banana's.
Seriously - this is a great service.

Todd --- you are so right --- it is critical to give blood and as you say so well, the life you save may be your own. Thanks.
I feel like I gave blood today, dealing with 2 different banks on short sales I'm trying to sell.
HI Todd,
I wish I was more brave, but everytime I see a needle, I pass out. I'm too squimish to give blood, and I am sorry for that. I know how important it is, maybe one day I will be more brave, but today is not that day.

Great reminder we get busy in the Summer and that is when the need is the greatest. 3 more and I'm at 9 gallons. I'll go this week.
Hi Todd!
How I would love to donate blood...unfortunately I am one of those chronically anemic people. Darn it anyway! I so admire those who give.
My... I haven't given blood in a long time, so next time I will have to slow down and donate some. Good Reminder to share with others and I am surprise by the comments above how many give often. That is also very nice to read.
It really is something that is easy to do and only takes about an hour to an hour and a half. But, the thing you are doing for someone else could be there for a years.
