Reminder
 
The Los Angeles 2018 March for Marrow 5K Run & Walk is this coming Saturday.

Forecasters predict a sunny day with a high of about 70 degrees. Photo ops in front of the Queen Mary should be perfect.

We'd love to have you join the fun in person, but you can also support the walk without attending.

Please join Team Marrowforums and help support bone marrow failure disease patients and their families.
