    I am a bone marrow donor. I consider it the highest honor of my life.

    I donated in October 2011, easy process, no pain and no after effects, register and save a life.

    I've donated blood and platelets. If I was able to donate bone marrow to help somebody, it would be a true honor.

    This video made me tear up. Jackie, I haven't seen you in a very long time (probably since around the time you got sick around your 21st birthday). I do remember that you weren't feeling good at work but I had absolutely no idea of all the troubles you went through and how bad it really was. I am glad you made it through this - if anyone would, it would be you. You are so full of life and a strong young woman and God bless you and your donor ! Love, Tijana.

    i would love to be a donor however I'm told I'm too old. I'm 41 but I feel like I'm in the best shape of my life. I wish these organizations would open up to more age groups.

    When my second wife questioned why I wanted to be a bone marrow donor with surgery etc required, I simply replied, “I might save your daughter’s life one day. She never again brought the subject up.
