Being a hero is not as difficult as it appears to be. Though it would be helpful to have the strength of 1,000 warriors and the ability to travel at the speed of light, all you ultimately need is an open heart.

 

One of the members of our local community now needs your help. Matthew, who has given so much to the community through his work with Asians for Miracle Marrow Matches was ironically and unexpectedly diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in June 2007. Acute Myelogenous Leukemia is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow – the spongy tissue inside the bone where blood cells are made. Though he underwent chemotherapy for sixteen months, the treatment was unsuccessful. Within the short period of six months following his treatment, the cancer relapsed in February 2009.

 

Matthew now needs to find a bone marrow match in order to save his life. You can be the match that can give Matthew and others battling blood diseases a second chance to live.

 

 

 

Look within yourself and be that hero.
