How did you feel then? How do you feel now?

Yeah, you're right that I didn't want this to be about bickering over who's right or wrong. If your feelings aligned with your conscience, that's all I could ask for.

One thing that touched me was seeing people more aware of blood donations, having people flock to give blood by the millions when only probably few thousand units were needed. Coming from a medical family, I've heard stories of my dad working the ER with the hospital having no blood to give people, and even worse when my mom would nurse at the operating table and they would run out of units after having already cut open someone. I really hoped that maybe a net amount of lives could eventually be saved simply by that little trinket of awareness.
