Canadian Blood Services needs your help to save Dan Twinn and others like him.
Dan Twinn has a rare blood cancer and only a bone marrow transplant will save his life.
Bone marrow donation is a simple process of registering your name and providing a cheek swab or blood sample. Once you are registered, you will only be contacted for further testing or possible donation if you are a potential match to save someone's life. The actual donation of bone marrow is a short day procedure with very little discomfort following.
That "someone" could be a newborn baby, a young child, a teenager, a mother, or a father - someone like Dan Twinn - you may even be the one to save this man's life.
If you are between the age of 17 and 50 years, please contact Canadian Blood Services @ 1-888-2-Donate or go to www.onematch.ca to register your name as a potential donor.
All ethnic backgrounds are needed. Younger donors are also urgently needed. The more people who register, the better the chance to find matches for everyone, especially those with uncommon typing, which is so very desperately needed.
Please inform others of the need to register and save lives.
Our Deepest Thanks,
The Twinn Family
