After being diagnosed with a blood cancer similar to leukemia, my cousin Tami found her marrow match, received her transplant, and continues to recover. But each day 70% of the 6000 American patients in need won't find a match in time until more people are willing to join the donor program.

If you're a match you can save a life by donating your stem cells or marrow to a patient in need. Testing is pain free and donating almost is.

Being a volunteer advocate assisting sick adults and children is filled with both miracles and great sadness. You can read more about my volunteer efforts by CLICKING HERE.
