Nick Glassgow, a friend in need. 28 year-old Nick and his mother are EMC employees in CA. Recently Nick was diagnosed with Leukemia, and needs a bone marrow transplant. Nicks mixed background is making its difficult to find a match; 25% Japanese and 75% Caucasian. You do not have to be of the same specific background as Nick to help. Register at http://BETHEMATCH.org to find Drives in your area OR Order a home kit. All costs will be free from June 8-22, 2009 with the following codes:
CM579 or AADPmarrowthon. Your donation will go into the National marrow bank, if youre not a match for Nick you can still help someone in need. The NMDP Registry has 7 million members: 73% Caucasian, 10% Latino and 7% Pacific Islander, 3% Multiple Race and 1% American Indian. A simple cheek swap is all that is needed to see if you are a potential match for Nick, or someone else in need. You could be the difference. Please Help!
