Bone Marrow Donation: How Swabbing Your Cheek Can Save Lives | TODAY
I'm going to share this on my FB page to spread awareness
I just signed up today. I'm waiting on my swab test now. Its amazing that out of all the registry that little girl only had 2 options, both that failed.
I am a bone marrow donor and a stem cell donor and am on the registry. But I am being threatened over it abd recipients might be being threatened too. There are so Monday donors other than me and I didn't want compromised. I was accepted on the registry in 2021. My bone marrow is clear or I wouldn't have Bern accepted in the registry. I takes weeks to be put on the registry. They test it first.
Epstein-Barr. I have it...have for 20+ years, and am a reactivating sufferer. I am so thankful that it has not re-activated to this level. Truly thankful. Please sign up to see if you are a match. It costs nothing.
Is it possible to take the bone marrow from an addicted donor
It depends what your addicted to. Im a semi addict and i donate they have a book that lists all the drugs that are ok and arent ok. Just give em a call and tell them what your upto.
Two donors were unavailable??? WTF, it's a kids life we're talking about here! Make yourself available. That's why you registered as a donor. How heartbreaking it is to find out that two people can save your child's life but they're unavailable! Unless you're dead then make yourself available!
Kevin P I can't be sure, but I believe if you're pregnant or some other medical issues come up then you cannot be considered a match anymore.
It is our moral and God life given blessing 2 give back to the life that we lived and blessed longevity. If we're as the Bible said in the image of God we give to God are ultimate devotion passion and desire!
