Blood donation

DONATION of blood is not just a quality but a virtue and by doing so you are actually leasing life to someone. Although we are aware of it, we have a wrong perception about it. We feel if we donate blood, it will weaken us and we may fall sick. This is a wrong notion as before donation a physician checks the health of a donor whether he/she is physically fit to donate blood and he/she can do so only after the doctor certifies. According to doctors, a normal healthy person can donate blood every four months and the donor also enjoys many health benefits thereof. Before a donor's blood is collected it is fully screened to verify the purity of blood. So if there is any problem the donor gets to know about it. Blood donation makes our blood flow better. It gives us a free health check which is important for us. It is a proven fact that those who help others by donating blood are not worse off in any way.
