Save Nirali

August 27, 2006

This sweet little girl has been diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) and is currently being given chemotherapy. But the risk of a relapse remains - and so she needs a bone marrow transplant. Her parents are seeking an Indian/South Asian donor to help save the life of their little girl. Please consider helping! Here’s what you can do: if you are based in the US, you can register for a bone marrow match test. It’s very simple and has no long term side effects at all. If you are based outside, you could send this message out to as many people as possible. And of course, you could pray / send good thoughts their way.

And if you are based in India and know of a testing centre, please mail me / leave a comment and I will update the details on this post.

Please help save Nirali!!

Many thanks to Polite Indian for the pointer.
