What could be easier than going on line, ordering a kit, swab your cheek, send it back? Such a simple process to possibly save a life. Staci Tamaki from the Flirty Guide is an absolute soldier in the fight to save her cousin’s life. Please go to www.helpingtami.org and take a moment to read her story. It made me think, how one life effects so many. By helping one woman to live, you are saving the mother of two children, the wife of one man, the only child of two parents, the friend to many. I urge you to log on and order your kit. You never know if someone you know may need a marrow transplant.
James and I have ordered our cheek swabbing kits and will be posting our “cheeky” experiences.
Lisa and James thank you so much for your blog post helping to spread the word and for getting tested for Tami. Funny you should say I’m like a soldier. I do feel like I’m fighting a war. Your blog post will help us to win this battle and not just for Tami but for other people in search of the marrow match they need to beat Leukemia, Sickle Cell Anemia and Myelodysplasia.
