Get the Word Out – Bone Marrow Donners Needed

Published by myamii at 6:00 am under Food For Thought, Food Images w/o Recipes, Information

If you read through all our wonderful entries yesterday from Taste&Create II, you will have read about our dear friend and blogger’s brother who had a relapse of leukemia. They are looking for people willing to get tested to see if they are a donor match for a bone marrow transplant since no one in the family is. Allison, from Sushi Day, has plenty of information and links in her post where you can find out how you can help. Just think, if it were you or your brother, what would you do?

I am personally touched by her situation because my uncle had leukemia, and because I have an 8 month old son. And, when I think of her brother I think to myself: if that were my baby, I would do anything for him to get better. So, I feel the need to help, and want to with my heart. For those of you who have children, you know exactly what I’m talking about, and for those of you who don’t, you’ll know one day.
