After a year from the bone marrow transplant, we have a chance to contact the donor. We were waiting to hear. Evidently, he was waiting to hear from us, too. This wonderful donor's name is Jeffrey from Minnesota.
Jeffry sent Jason e-mail earlier this year, and the following week, he called us!
He works for Be The Match - bone marrow registry organization! As much as we were excited to get to know him, he was happy to know Jason was doing well. What a nice man!!!
He said even though he works for the Be The Match, not everyone in the company gets to be a donor (I think the odds to be a donor is 1 in 1000). A lot of people were happy that Jeffry and Jason got to talk finally.
What a way to give a chance to live! I am thankful for Jeffry because Jason is getting better and leukemia free because of Jeffry, and our boys will have a father for a long time. I hope we get to meet him and thank him in person someday.
Here is the web site for Be The Match. If you have not register as a donor, here is the way you can save a life!
