    I am the recipient of a transplant from a generous donor, a total stranger a quarter way around the world. At 22 years old she gave of herself so that I could have a second lease on life. A perfect match has given me over six years remission.
    I thank her more than weekly on WhatsApp and she and her husband have taken vacation to spend ten days with us in Arkansas.
    We had no idea that we shared a common ancestor who emigrated from Germany to Illinois. Two strangers in a database.
    For the love of someone you have yet to meet......
    Please be the Match

    If you have not done so, please consider registering to be a donor. Most likely you will do it and then never hear anything (I've not been needed for 10 years now). But you could save someone's life. A small decision by you could mean the world to someone in need.

    Does it cost money to donate?

    • @nmdp_org
      @nmdp_org  Před 8 měsíci +6

      Nope! Donors never pay to donate blood stem cells or bone marrow. We do reimburse travel costs and other costs on a case-by-case basis. All medical costs for the donation procedure are covered by us or by the patient's medical insurance. If you have any further questions or would like to learn more, give us a call at 1-800-MARROW2. 💚💙 -Luke
