Final Blood Tests: 1 of 2

Had some blood tests today, which will release half on my donated sperms.

Why does, 'this will be a small scratch' never quite that? Either it's completely painless, or it hurts like $%@!.

Will report back once I get the 'okay' letter.

Small Update

Not much to say, but a few updates.

1) Apologies to those looking via Google for hints on the Monkey Quest World of Warcraft Add On. This is not the Monkey you are looking for. Move along, move along.
2) The clinic have asked for a July appointment to release half my Sperm donations.
3) I am still around and will update.

Photograph of an Anonymous Donor

I'd been wanting to do this for a while, and after seeing that Richard had posted some photos of him and his gorgeous kids, it gave me the courage to attach a photo of myself - although I won't go the whole hog and post a recent photo for a while yet.



My Clinic has this photograph too. There is the chance that when my donation is released that the recipient's of my donation may stumble onto this Blog. C'est la vie.

PS I've aged a bit since that photo was taken.

Status Update

All my donations are complete. So in around 6 months I'll have my final bloodtests and then the donations will be released for use.

Thoughts about this Blog

Looking at the name I chose for this blog - I suppose really it is rather derogatory and put people off.

I don't get many visitors - so maybe it doesn't really matter, or should I change it?

Things I Now Know

  • I could have requested mileage Expenses + £250 for a full donor cycle. I will not break even on the cost of donation.
  • There are 12 visits for a full donor cycle, Initial Visit / 10 Donations / Final Blood Test

  • My blood group, is an odd one - I may get one of those stainless steel bracelets made up

  • STD's, I don't have any

  • General Health, Genetics, everything is clear

  • Going without sex is frustrating

  • Handing over the donation to the embryologist can be a bit embarrassing the first few times

  • I am glad I was accepted as as donor and glad I am doing this :-)
