I have O neg blood which is considered universal donor. Should I give blood? I am a terrible coward?

Question:

Plus I have a tattoo and drink lots of wine on the weekends. Am I still eligible? I'm not great with needles.

Answers:
in my opinion you should,and it dont matter if you got O neg or not,the fact that you willingly would give something from yourself to help another,is great..:-)
and about the tattoo and the wine,the medic will test you before you can actually give blood anyway,so no worries there..
and if ya ask me,it is not you that has to be great with needles,aslong the medic knows what to do,it all will be ok.
and look at it this way,giving blood is good for you too,your body will make some new blood to replace the one that you gave away.
so if ya ask me,its a win-win situation..
greetings

buck up mister! you have a civic responsibility to donate blood. think of all the good that might come about by the donation of your blood. plus they give you a cookie and orange juice when it's done. :)
