Dear friend ,
Sorry to bother you with a non radiology related email. We are trying to do whatever we can to help our friend. Our beloved friend 28 year old SETAREH LAVASANI, dentist, dental radiology resident at university of Texas is diagnosed with LEUKEMIA( BLOOD CANCER) and is in urgent need of bone marrow transplant.The chance of people of middle eastern ethnicity who will match her blood type is much higher than others.

1. Anyone can donate stem cells?

Most people can, yet there are a number of criteria to ensure that stem cell donation is safe for the donor and the recipient.

2. People are free to withdraw at any time?

People can withdraw from OneMatch anytime, however there can be serious risks to a patient if a donor withdraws close to the scheduled transplantation date. For this reason, donors are given every opportunity to decline early in the process.

Sincerely Yours
