Originally Posted By goodgirl Hey everyone, I'm catching up on LP posts and caught this thread. I'd like to suggest that you consider registering with the National Bone Marrow Donor Program. Several years ago a presentation was made at my Rotary Club by someone who had registered and ended up being matched as a donor. It was wonderful to hear about the woman whose life he ended up saving. After the meeting we were given the opportunity to sign up. All it takes is a simple blood test. After that you're registered and just need to notify them of any change in your address. Should you get a call about being a match (not ever happened to me yet) you are counseled on what will occur and you are not pressured into doing it. It requires a night in the hospital, minor discomfort in the hip for a couple days and all expenses are paid for. And, you probably save someone's life to boot. <a href="http://www.marrow.org/" target="_blank">http://www.marrow.org/</a>

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle Oh, no - I'm very sorry to hear this! I was hoping all would be well by now. His family must be very worried, I'll keep them all in my thoughts. I sent my card out about a week and a half ago so hopefully it's reached him by now, who knows with international mail!

Originally Posted By jnemo If anyone had not sent a card and still planned on doing it please hold off for right now. He is not doing very well at all. The doctors have found some brain tumors and are fearing he may slip into a coma. Thank you very for that has sent a card. Please everyone continue with thinking the good thoughts and prayers, this family will really need them now.
Originally Posted By MissCandice Oh man. After your last email I have been holding off. Is there anything we can do to help his family? Would they like some cards? I know in the scale of things, cards aren't much but they are a brief moment of sunshine, which is good, especially in this dark time.
Originally Posted By jnemo Candice, at this time I don't think they would help. If things improve I will let you know.
Originally Posted By smedley Oh no! I had been hoping for better news. Do keep us updated, I am sending my best wishes and happy thoughts.
