Bone Marrow Registry

You can register yourself with the bone marrow registry this weekend in Irvine.
You must be 18 - 61 years of age to donate. They will swab your cheek with a q-tip. Easy! They will still be setting up at the two upcoming events, but this will allow everyone to get the ball rolling now - it takes 4-6 weeks for them to complete the matching process. When you register, you need to put Todd's name down I also want you to know the process of donating bone marrow is much like donating plasma or platelets. Thank heaven for modern medicine!!
