Did my 20th blood donation on Saturday :)

the heading says it all…

I started donating blood in April 2002 and until March 2009 I have donated 20 times. I am not sure if I should feel proud about it because in theory I could have donated up to 28 times (4 years a year is allowed in Singapore for whole blood donation). However, My target was 21 (or 3 times a year). So, I guess I am short of 1 time now and that amounts to 95% of goal.

I am hoping that I will be able to donate 5 more times this and next year to reach 25 in 2010 and get a silver medal :D

    Hi Krishnan,

    95% is an achievement alright. Not many of us are as focus as you. Singaporeans are more air than action. Like me, I kept saying I will donate blood but secretly, I kept telling myself why I don’t have the time to do it and come up with excuses; although most of them are true. Thank you for the inspiration. I will aim to donate 10 times by 2010. Although pale in comparison to your target, but hey, its my target! To each its own. The important thing is everyone needs a goal in life.

    Cheers brother

    Dear Ernest,

    Thank you for your kind words. Yes, each of us have our own targets, keep going :) the more important thing is being a regular blood donor and saving lives consistently :)

    cheers
