This is interesting. I would love to be able to donate blood, but since my

doctors thought that a virus was likely at the root of my case I decided once I

was old enough and weighed enough that it wouldn't be a good idea. What's worse,

bleeding out from lack of blood supply or getting cfs through the blood

transfer? My mom has fms and possibly cfs and she still donates occasionally.

I'm not sure what's best.

PS

Some great news, I finally graduated from college (and summa cum laude, too!).

Other than working on getting into graduate school and a little volunteering

this summer, I have the next year to rest.
