I just received a phone call earlier today saying I’m a match for a 5 year old girl. I will be undergoing additional testing to see if I’m the best match. Wow!
Congrats... I hope it all goes well and she lives a long and happy life. The gift of life is so precious and meaningful for donors that I'm almost jealous lol
Congrats! Please do update us, was it a match? Did you donate? :D I signed up to be a bone marrow donor a few months back, but I was told that the chance of ever donating is extremely slim, but hopefully someone somewhere in the world can use what I can provide.
I had leukemia 8 years ago. I had an anonymous donor as well. I was able to meet her a little over a year later. She is my hero. My whole family loves her. People who are willing to donate a part of themselves are so incredible.
Depends on which person gets the donation though. Imagine donating an organ or some sort to a save criminal's life and to have them murder your love ones days after.
@@BeyondAverageSkilled That's a sad way of looking at it honestly. Obviously there's a chance that you might save a bad persons life, but for every bad person saved, there are thousands of innocent and good people being given another chance.
@@BeyondAverageSkilled what if criminal’s approach to life changes after this act of generosity. What if he turns out to be of great help to ur family someday . Or what if he is declared brain dead someday in future but has signed organ donation form , Dude there are infinite possibilities please don’t narrow down ur approach to life . I hope u have a beautiful day .
My father had a liver transplant two years ago. The liver was donated by my aunt. Now my father and aunt are well. Please pray for my father's longevity
@braindead sheep The doctor cannot make a liver from nothing. He still needs a liver piece from the the patient's aunty. Otherwise the doctor could not save him.
that's so awesome man! And 32 gallons, holy shit! The amount of lives you've saved, and families you've helped is insane. May I ask how long you've been a donor? And is 32 gallons in whole blood donations, or variety? I've only donated 1.5L of blood so far (little under half a gallon), but signed up to become a plasma, platelets and bone marrow donor. Currently am unable to donate though, due to the fact I am prescribed Vyvanese for my ADHD, which gives me a 72 hour 'ban' :( I hope to not need the medication in the future, because I've known since I was 13 I wanted to donate. Can't wait until I hit a milestone as cool as yours!
That's amazing ! At the same time this video is inspirational for some good people who would like to be donors but , caught up with life. Kind of jogs them up...
I signed to be a potencial donor when I was 18 y.o. but now I'm quite old so I guess I won't have that joy. Many liters of my 0 negative blood have collaborated to restore the health of many people though but I never will know who. Blood is not payed in my country, Spain, but my conscience is peaceful.
I had my BMT a year ago, I dont know who my donor is but the Doctor told me He/She came from America and Im in Australia. I want to Thank Him/Her but the Doctors couldnt give me any personal information about the person. Thank you to my Donor and to all the other Donors out there.
If you take a DNA test on Ancestry or whatever you will match her relatives and you can get in contact that way :) . when you have a bone marrow transplant you aquire the DNA of your donor for life.
@@ls200076 That is a possibility however if you don't try to contact you won't know. If you contact them and they want nothing to do with you just respect that.
About 20 years ago I was a bone marrow donor. The only thing I knew was that it was a woman. I don't know who she was or where she lived. About one year later I informed if the woman was oke, if she survived. Unfortunately she didn't, she died because of an intestinal infection. I've cried for two days and my thoughts and prayers were with her family. I hope that when my time is there I have the chance to meet her. And even it's been a while she is on my mind and in my heart ❤️
Earlier this year my daughter donated bone marrow fluid/cells for a person we were told was in Sweden. I am so proud of her willingness to give of herself. Hopefully the recipient is now alive and well to continue with their life, surrounded by family and friends.
if it wasn't for cutting edge forward thinking pioneer doctors who came up with bone marrow transplanting this would not have been possible. they are the real heroes.
Let me say that the process for extracting bone marrow is EXTREMELY PAINFUL!!!! You have to be awake for the procedure, so for him to do that for that kid is AMAZING!!!!!!
I was on the marrow registry for decades n never had a match. I have since suffered some pretty extreme health issues and can no longer donate. This story is awesome.
Videos like this give us hope that the world still has hope this man is a hero and that boy is stronger knowing thanks to people like him he can get stronger and stronger
My first power red was given to a young girl that was in a horrific car crash and she couldn't survive without a transfusion. I got a card almost a year after that donation, from the girl saying her thanks. I keep giving. My first platelet donation was just this past Monday
Recently I sent my sample for be the match, its a simple mouth swap that you send, and everything is done by mail, easy and simple, but imagine what an affect it can have.
I wish the news would try to make things like this more of a focal point. This makes me so damn happy man. Also I knew someone who had to go through this procedure and the unbelievable amount of pain he went through to donate makes this so much more amazing.
It's so easy to be tested and put in the registry, you just never know who you could save. I am too old to donate but I donate blood [ A-neg] every 8 weeks
Hello Camille, I hope my comment wasn't taken as a form of invasion of your comments privacy. I'm here to make friends, how are you? Where are you from?
My coworker is about to donate marrow and besides doing it because it's a good thing to do I asked him if there was any incentives or benefits and he said no not really. If donating blood can get you a free pint of ice cream I feel like donating bone marrow should get you free medical for a year or something. I know people should just want to donate from the kindness of their hearts oh, but if they were to incentivize donating more then I guarantee people would jump in line to donate.
Nice gesture. If I gave bone marrow to that kid, he might feel tired all the time, want to take frequent naps, and want to sit at his computer for most of the day.
I just lost a cousin to a severe brain injury last week. He's already saved lives by donating his kidneys, liver and heart valves.
What a beautiful gift, may he rest in peace x
I'm so sorry for your loss and grateful his passing gave others life and hope.
Great job...
Such a good thing to do
sorry to hear about the loss of your cousin

There is nothing like a happy and uplifting story to warm the heart in dark times. Made my day. Thanks for posting!
Man i remember when I saved someone's life too with an O- blood donation. His mother's emotions were the same.
Reminds me of when I saved 2 kids with my O- donation. They were very appreciative, both sets of parents.
