You are wasting time that could be used to fill it with beer instead of blood, to the pub tom.

according to wiki answers it never comes back
How long does it take the body to replace the blood given as a blood donor?
In: Public Health
blood cannot be replaced as you only have 8 pints throughout your whole life.
surely thats wrong

-----------------------------------------
After one unit of blood is donated, the body replaces the plasma within 24 hours, the platelets within 48 hours and the red blood cells within 56 days.
Your body produces four to five billion red blood cells in an hour.
The average adult body contains 10 to 12 pints of blood.
