Some great news! Remember the bone marrow registry drive for Nadia and Sophia? (and our continual reminders, nudges, and requests for you to sign up if you can and to spread the word about OneMatch.ca) It appears Sophia might have a match! Since Sophia’s doctors regularly check the registries, the potential match is most likely a new recruit. So if your bone marrow registry contacts you (or recently contacted you) to have further testing done, there is a good chance you are being asked to help Sophia.
Isn’t that wonderful? It is really rare, and special, to see almost immediate results from bone marrow registry drives.
So thank you again for registering with your bone marrow registry. Thank you for coming to our bone marrow registry drive. Thank you Elham and friends from Zavieh and to Anika and Warren for making the Vancouver drive a success. You should be proud of this accomplishment.
And if you have not signed up with your bone marrow registry, please do. Encourage those you know. There are many more Nadias and Sophias who need your help.
The kindness of strangers.
It is in you to give.
