    What gets to me is the way he spoke of him with no knowledge he was nearby. That was a GENUINE expression of gratitude and a genuine expression of how much he considers the young man to be a part of his story. My actual HEART 😭😭

    I matched with a lady sick with leukemia and donated stem cells a couple weeks ago. I don’t know if I’ll get to meet the patient or her family, but I hope it was a blessing for them.

    Years ago, I got an email saying that a little girl from Montana (I think, it's been a while) needed my help for a bone marrow transplant. I initially said yes, but was later told that the family backed out. I don't know for certain if she's still alive. I wish I could of helped like I wanted.
