Every single time you donate blood, they check it for HIV. EVERY FUCKING TIME!
So after a few years of this, I get a letter. Mr. FD45, we ran an HIV test and it came back positive. So we did an in depth test and found out you AREN'T HIV positive. But don't bother coming back because we don't want your blood anymore, even though you're clean.
Even knowing all of that, knowing I never used drugs or cheated, it's still a bit of a punch in the gut, so I have a small bit of sympathy for the wife. SMALL.
But here was my reation. I gave the letter to my wife. I READ the letter to my wife. I EXPLAINED the letter to my wife (in case she was in shock and didn't get the details). And then I offered to take another test or two if it would calm her mind.
I could tell she was set back on her pins too, but she didn't require a test. I wasn't positive (except in the lowest bidder screening test) so I didn't require her to take a test. That is what a loving couple does. Compare that to the actions of the wife.
Run Forest Run!
The real conclusion is we could have an alien invasion, and every single drop of blood would be required for the frontline soldiers. They could drop all the testing requirements and have a gold leaf lettter sent from the President of the Red Cross himself. I'm not donating a drop of blood ever again. Just because of their stupid rules. So as a result, too many strip clubs of today have to deal with flat dancers. Tragic what damage idiotic regulations can do.
