November is Bone Marrow Awareness Month... One of my favorite and sweetest people in the world has been diagnosed with a Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) a form of blood cancer.
Every 4 minutes in the U.S., someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer. For many patients, a bone marrow transplant is the best chance for survival. While 30% of patients can find a matching donor in their families, 70%—approximately 14,000 each year—must rely on a benevolent stranger to step up and donate.
