Simon is currently undergoing the second phase of chemotherapy for leukemia. After the chemo has destroyed the cancer, a bone marrow or stem cell transplant is needed. The doctors are in search of a suitable donor with the correct tissue type to match that of Simon's. This is extremely difficult to find.
SHARE A LITTLE AND SAVE A LIFE!! YOU COULD BE SOMEONE’S ONLY CHANCE !

Joining the SA Bone Marrow Registry is one way of helping - possibly not Simon, but some other patient as seriously ill as Simon. In brief this requires:

Donors must be between 18 – 50 years
Donors must be in general good health
With no history of hepatitis or sexually transmitted diseases
Donors should weigh over 50kgs
Preferably, but not necessarily be a blood donor
Donors must be informed
Donors must be committed to help anyone
