Too much red so I gave some away

How's that possible? I've given blood something like 35 times. They have a standard sized bag that they fill, and then a bunch of test tube vials they also fill so they can test it. To take too much, they would have to stick her twice. Did she let them stick her twice?

Maybe it was "too much" for her. Giving blood can sap a little energy. You are supposed to take it easy for the rest of the day after giving blood. I have a hard time with that. Lately, I give on a Saturday morning, and my Saturdays are usually pretty active and busy.
