You know im there and willing to donate


dunno how many other people know this but here is a run-down of what to expect as a donor.

-Once you are in the registry, you open yourself to be a donor for anyone looking (i.e. 5 years from now, you may be a match for a 10year old with leukemia and would donate then)

-Costs - normally, it would be quite expensive to had the bloodwork done, but as this is a sponsered event, i dont believe it will cost you anything.

-If you are a match - you would either 1) sit in a hospital for about an hour where they hook you up to a filter and filter what they need from you and this is done 3 times or 2) 1 operation, where you are sedated and it is all extracted at once.

-Hospital Bills - will be covered by the person you are donating to, and you see no charges.

-it takes about 8 weeks for a healthy person to replenish what all was donated, and no adverse feelings of sickness or anything such as that would happen.

i hope i included everything, but im sure billy and frances will add/modify info when the time comes.

Also, hope to see a great turnout aswell...if it is anything like the bennigans meetup it would be nice, but everyone is asked to come, even if you just wanna hang out and such.

Kenny, you are right. The normal cost is $75 dollars to be tested as a bone marrow donor, but this will be free for all who come out on the 28th.

Don't worry, a best in show truck could win "Best in Show Car." Come out and try your luck.
