Too Low

My sister Jenna talked me into donating plasma with her for a few quick bucks. I used to donate blood and enjoyed doing my part to help others. However, since I've started having kids, my iron has been below the amount they'll accept. After popping iron pills and eating iron rich foods and avoiding dairy for a week, we went to donate. And I failed the hematocrit test again. By three points! What a bummer. Jenna was able to donate, but had an unfortunate incident involving passing out. At least she walked out of there with $30! I just had a sore finger.
