Announcement from the family of someone I dated in college and still care about very much…his niece has cancer and needs help. Please spread the word via Facebook, Twitter, LiveJournal, etc.
Natalie is 8 years old. She has a little brother, Sean, and lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
After five difficult rounds of chemotherapy last year, Natalie’s leukemia was in remission. Now it’s back and we have just weeks to find the bone marrow donor match that Natalie needs to save her life.
Natalie’s greatest chance for a match is from those of ASIAN descent. Please help us spread the word through the Asian community.
To register as a potential bone marrow donor…I just did this – (free and easy, cheek swab test, kit mailed to your home and you send the swabs back in a prepaid envelope, only 1 in 200 donors will ever go through the simple outpatient procedure to give marrow to save a life) go here: http://www.dkmsamericas.org
