I have been blessed by very generous people, who continue to help me in my efforts to fight cancer. But what if money is tight right now... What can you do to help? I thought the video in the link below gave a great idea of something we could do to help without costing a lot of money. The girl in the video (a local Seattle girl) was saved by having a second transplant from an unrelated donor. I can't help but think of what might have happened if Tyler had been able to find a match in the Bone Marrow registry. Would he still be here? Only 3 out of 10 patients currently find a match in the registry. The best way to improve those odds is to get everyone we know to sign up and be willing to save somebody's life!
