I donated plasma every 6 weeks and was also advised that I can't donate for 5 years. So disappointing. It's funny though - theoretically I am cancer free. My grade 1 cancer was removed in mastectomy with no lymph node involvement but now I can't donate. I actually did have cancer when I did my last donation just before diagnosis (and goodness knows how many times before that) Go figure! I'm with you Chabrittson, I really loved that feeling of helping people but I'll find another way to do it.
Just had a pink ribbon tattooed on my wrist to help raise awareness. I'll post a photo later.
I think all you wonderful women are helping people everyday just by sharing your stories and providing incredible support to each other.
