Almost every day, I hear desperate calls for blood donations made on loudspeakers out of the hospital. It has been like that for more than a year. ... I had donated blood before, and I felt it was my duty to do it again. So one morning last month, I headed to Nasser Hospital. While the blood was being drawn from my arm, I felt severe dizziness, and I thought I was going to faint. My friend, Nurse Hanan ... went to test my blood, and after 10 minutes returned to tell me that I was suffering from severe anaemia and malnutrition. My blood did not contain the minimum nutrients necessary for donation. ---
