Blood Donating

I usually try and go donate blood. I have 2 reasons number 1 being I want to help others and number 2 is because my cousin who I lost last year to Cancer told me it made her proud. Even though I'm anemic I still attempt. Being anemic means my iron is always low , in order to donate your iron level must be 38. My iron was 37 which means I was not able to donate. I'm still happy I was able to attempt.
