Woman Meets Man Who Saved Her Life

[@Jdcarlson17]

Just got a call yesterday saying i was a possible match. Im very humbled to have this opportunity to help someone

[@alanmccalla6737]

I am the recipient of a transplant from a generous donor, a total stranger a quarter way around the world. At 22 years old she gave of herself so that I could have a second lease on life. A perfect match has given me over six years remission. I thank her more than weekly on WhatsApp and she and her husband have taken vacation to spend ten days with us in Arkansas. We had no idea that we shared a common ancestor who emigrated from Germany to Illinois. Two strangers in a database. For the love of someone you have yet to meet...... Please be the Match

May God bless both of you! I got the call to donate too. I consider it the highest honor of my life.

[@clemqueens1943]

I will be the recipient from a wonderful donor in a month from now. To be a donor is to save someone’s life! I call you a super hero! I am beyond blessed.

[@peggyesquibel8353]

What an amazing young man and such a beautiful story! A bond that will never be broken! My heart is full watching this! Bless these two beautiful souls!❤️

[@BrittanyMerritt-q4c]

I am so proud of you that you saved her life.😁👍🏻❤

[@luke-i1w]

If you have not done so, please consider registering to be a donor. Most likely you will do it and then never hear anything (I've not been needed for 10 years now). But you could save someone's life. A small decision by you could mean the world to someone in need.

[@coleworld4385]

They do not call you after the age of 35. I just read it on their website. They won’t even add you to the registry after that age, unfortunately…

Be the match is wonderful. If you are 18-35, they will take you, but they don’t take people over those age limits.

[@amywantland5359]

Yup. It sure is beautiful isn’t? And that is true too.😁👍🏻❤

[@lindamastropietro4429]

I just tried to join the registry, but sadly, I’m too old to donate my bone marrow

[@devildoc4257]

Me too but my kids registered.

[@coleworld4385]

[@sammywilliam8156]

To do what must be done

[@ryansilagi3228]

Luckily my brother was a match

[@cindygarland3851]

❤❤❤❤ Beautiful 😍

[@sterling8298]

Does it cost money to donate?

[@nmdp_org]

Nope! Donors never pay to donate blood stem cells or bone marrow. We do reimburse travel costs and other costs on a case-by-case basis. All medical costs for the donation procedure are covered by us or by the patient's medical insurance. If you have any further questions or would like to learn more, give us a call at 1-800-MARROW2. 💚💙 -Luke

[@sarahshulman2086]

Grandmas can’t be adopted through marrow donation

[@ashleybee00]

[@tangel7347]
