Cancer sucks. Bone marrow donation can help.

I've had several people close to me experience cancer in the past few years, from my grandmother in her 80s to two close friends around my age, and another friend's little girl (Millie) who was diagnosed at age 4.  While the older ones are in remission, now 6-year-old Millie relapsed just as she finished up 2 years of chemo.  She's currently in the hospital getting aggressive chemotherapy and waiting to find a bone marrow match.


Please consider signing up to be a bone marrow donor.  All it takes is a cheek swab, and you could be Millie's match.

Here's a picture of Millie with her brother and Santa from her mom's blog. You can read more about Millie and her family's journey with cancer here http://bradyandamanda.blogspot.com/
