Dear Community
Members,
This week I met with
the mother of a 21 year old young man, Rishi Chandiramani
and she had an urgent plea for a stem cell donor for her son who has leukemia
and desperately needs a stem cell transplant. Rishi is no longer in remission
and every day is vital in the search for a
donor.
Encourage your children and
friends ages 18-44 to "BE THE MATCH".
It takes just a cheek
swab to determine if your unique gift could save a
life.
NOTE: the steps in
donating this gift of life are: (1) Cheek swab (2) Only should you
be a suitable donor, just some blood donation, NO BONE MARROW ASPIRATE REQUIRED,
YOUR STEM CELLS ARE AVAILABLE IN YOUR BLOOD ITSELF!! IT IS AS SIMPLE AS DONATING
BLOOD, AND YOUR BLOOD IS ACTUALLY RETURNED TO YOU AFTER SOME STEM CELLS ARE
REMOVED.
Because Rishi is an
Indian, the most likely donor will come from another South Asian person. It is
important that we act together as a community to help save one of our
own.
Please note that
friends of the family, Dr. Rahul and Usha Nath have organized a drive at their
residence to help with the bone marrow registry on Saturday, 19th of January,
2013 between 12pm to 3pm.
Their address is 8 REMINGTON LANE, HOUSTON, TX 77005. There will be
a representative from GiveBlood.org present
to answer your questions.
Access to their
subdivision is only via the gates at Longfellow Lane, which will be open from
11:30am to 3:30pm. A link to a Google map is attached below for your
convenience.
Please email me at r...@hkhouston.com or call me
at 832 814 6031 to confirm your participation so arrangements for enough cheek
swabs and refreshments can be made accordingly.
Please help this
pleading mother save her son and do your part for
humanity!
