Please consider joining the National Bone Marrow Registry. Unlike popular belief, donating bone marrow does not involve surgery and is similar to giving blood. Signing up is simple and can save lives.
For more information, please visit the Be The Match Registry at
http://www.marrow.org/ If you or anyone you know is thinking about starting a family, consider participating in medical magic and donating umbilical cord stem cells for marrow transplants. Donating is safe for both mother and child, and can give leukemia patients a better chance at finding a life saving marrow match.
For more information please visit the Hawaii Cord Blood Bank at
http://www.hcbb.org/ or search the Be The Match Registry to find participating hospitals in your area.
Thank you. : )
