I'm type O. Hence my question.
This is helpful and I will pass this along to all those I email. I have faith that we will find a donor for this young man.
Type O doesn't mean much. Getting a bone marrow donor match, unless it's directly from the immediate family, is like winning the lotto. You have to get A LOT of people signed up and registered to get a hit.
That's why it's SO important to get registered, especially if you're mixed race. Registering for a bone marrow match for this Marine could save your own life, or a loved one's, years from now.
