Sometimes, a little bit of publicity can save a life

And if my half-dozen readers aren’t “a little bit” I don’t know what is!

I was alerted to a pressing need for a bone marrow donor through Seth Godin’s blog.

Here is the post that caught my attention: Eliminating the impulse to stall.

And here is the website for Amit Gupta who desperately needs a donor.

If this finds a donor for Amit, or raises awareness of the pressing need for donors of all kinds, then my blog has done its job today.


UPDATE!

Amit found a donor and has had the surgery. Now he needs to recover and get used to being healthy again. I hope the transplant “takes” and that Amit will have a long and happy life.

    I was on the bone marrow donor list but they don’t want you after age 50. Apparently it doesn’t last as long or take as well. Anyway, I am glad you are doing what you can to have others sign on.

    Hope teaching is easy on your system!
