- When Suleika Jaouad was only 22, she was diagnosed with MDS and AML, and has since received two blood stem cell transplants. She’s a New York Times bestselling author, prominent speaker and creator of a popular newsletter and community project, the Isolation Journals, joined by over 120,000 people from around the world. That’s exactly why she was chosen to receive the inaugural Be The Match INSPIRE Award. Suleika’s vulnerability, honesty and eloquence as a cancer patient and transplant recipient is an inspiration to patients (and their caregivers, family and friends) who are in need of a blood stem cell transplant.
Suleika was recognized with this award at our New York Gala on May 4, 2023, where funds were raised to help more patients access life-saving transplants. Learn more at BeTheMatch.org/NYGala

I am so proud of you that you saved her life with your donation.😁👍🏻❤
Wow, this interview reminds me more about being patient
My 29 y.o. son died from AML in 2021 after he relapsed after transplant. They couldn’t get him into remission for a second transplant. I’m too old for Be the Match, but I’m in the testing process for donating a kidney to a good friend.
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your son, Amy. Sending so much love to you! 💙💚 -Joli
My heart breaks for you. I'm currently in remission for AML. Though I can never give, my family regularly donates blood and platelets since it was vital to my recovery. There is no age limit. I pray you find healing and are able to honor your son in a way that brings you some comfort.
The transformation of determination love
From the very moment I met you I knew your such a beautiful soul I'm happy your doing well keep being the wonderful person you are
This is so beautiful. I’ve had a kidney transplant and dialysis when I was young.
I love her energy. Just saw the vid of her and her husbands beautiful home and felt a sweet resonance with her and wanted to know more about her. Hearing this story and that she couldn’t find a match is heartbreaking. I don’t know about this (donor) world but would like to learn about the registry and if I can donate to it to help someone like her. Thank you for sharing this story and so much love and blessings to Suleika.
i love you
