As you may be aware, someone in my family has been personally touched by Leukemia and needed a Bone Marrow Transplant. For some very complicated reasons his Transplant failed and he requires another Full Bone Marrow Transplant starting from scratch. The reason I write this post is to bring awareness to this cause. My brother-in-law has Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). He is now 35 with three young children under 8 years old. I feel completely helpless in this journey and at this point there is not a lot I can do….except raise awareness of the importance of donating. Whether that be blood, bone marrow, platelets or money to research. My own Mum passed away from Leukemia. You too may know someone who has been effected by cancer or a blood cancer, such as Leukemia. Are you on the Australian Bone Marrow Register? You could possibly save a life. There are 2 ways you can donate your Bone Marrow and it is entirely your choice, which way you go. Please help save someones life…..  Please click to find out more about the process of donating your Bone Marrow.

Every year Australians are diagnosed with leukaemia and other fatal blood disorders. For some people the only chance of remission or a cure is a bone marrow or blood stem cell transplant. These transplants are ONLY made possible by the generosity of donors. Did you know if you are between the age of 18 and 40 years old and in good health you can possibly help give someone  a second chance to live.

My 34 year old brother-in-law was diagnosed with leukaemia in January and none of his three siblings are a match. They went to the Australian register, but he was not successful. They have since found a match on the International register. This hi-lights the fact we need more donors in Australia. Please think about donation, as it may one day help give someone you know more time with their loved ones ♥♥♥♥
