DUer Alarcojon to receive bone-marrow transplant tomorrow (Wed) |
|
Many of you know that our friend and loyal DUer Alarcojon has been battling a particularly nasty form of adult-onset leukemia this summer. He's finally going in for a bone-marrow transplant tomorrow, Wednesday the 26th, after enduring weeks of chemo and radiation therapy, and their attendant hardships. If you have a moment during the day, please beam Alarcojon your best wishes, prayers and/or positive energy. He's in no shape to read DU at the moment, obviously, but I'm told that his lovely wife will gladly pass your sentiments along. Hang tough, Alarcojon! Peace and strength to you.

I'm so very glad they came up with a match for you! I know you must be feeling like crap right now, but hang in there -- visualize all that new bone marrow mtaking root in your body and healing you.
All the best to you and your family! :hi:
And DUers: Get thee to a blood bank and become a marrow donor!!!! You too can give life-saaving marrow to someone like Al!

I've been on the Bone Marrow registry for years and years, and I really hope that I get a call about it someday. I'm also a blood donor. I'm up to 6 gallons lifetime.
I encourage all of you to look into getting on the Bone Marrow registry. They just draw a little bit of your blood to do it. That's all. You might just save someone someday like our DU amigo.
If you're braver, you might look into donating a pint of blood. You'll literally be a lifesaver in your community.

Unfortunately I've been in CO for the past week and a half, but drop me a line when you'd like some company--since the restaurant closed I have a bit of free time. :D

31. good luck! I signed up for the Unrelated Marrow Donor program ... |
|
... some time ago. Highly recommended to all DUers who are also regular blood donors ... they screen you, and will get in touch if someone needs a contribution.
