She wouldn't be able to donate because she has a full sleeve, you need to see her veins...
So it must an April fools!
Maybe she doesn't on the other arm or has a usable vein elsewhere ๐คท
The veins in my arms are difficult to find, so when I need blood extracted they use one on the back of my hand. They could do the same with her..
They can't/wont use hand veins for this, since they have to extract, process, and return the volume not used. IME they wanted an arm vein and only went after the inner elbow for the needle site. The hand vein likely isn't large enough to use for this purpose.
