    I am.........

    Going to be a bone marrow donor.

    I want to urge all of you to consider registering with either the NHS bone marrow register or with Anthony Nolan.

    This is the second time I have been a close match but last time I wasn't close enough.

    Next step for me is a medical and then a date some time in the next 3 months.


    Please consider it.

    Ace, there's a new spit test isn't there? When I joined I need a blood test IIRR, but that was 17 years ago!

    Well done!

    Have to admit that know very little about this and what is involved. I shall go and read.

    I have tried to give blood but they can never get the full amount from me So what I can manage to give is wasted. I have't given up entirely thoguh and will be going back again this year to try again. Think I only have one more chance left though.

    That's fab. I'm on the list too, also registered when they had to take blood for the matches. One day, I hope, there'll be a match.
