The need for bone marrow donors

As many of you know... I was diagnosed with vsAA September of 2011. I had an unrelated bone marrow donor and had a transplant in March 2012. I am doing amazingly well and fully understand the importance of educating the public on what it means to give marrow and how to get on the registry.

Please share this video in your networks. I hope we can reach as many people as we can!
