previous post from MARCH 2009

if you are in the NEW YORK CITY AREA tomorrow, APRIL 1st…please, please, please go and get swabbed to see if you would be a bone marrow donor for JASMINA. it could save this beautiful 6 year old girls life.

the process literally took less than a minute. i was in and out in under 10 minutes. you fill out forms, get swabbed and then you’re done!

take a look at the drive from SUNDAY that i attended. we gathered the troops and headed out early.

*in the cab, JASMINAS commercial was on.


*AMNTM has nothing on this girl!


*1: after you meet the specifications of being a donor, you fill out your information.


*2: get swabbed, easy breezey!


*3: DONE! then you take a picture! we were all half asleep. 10 am is early for sunday!


*some of us were really not happy about being up so early, but we did it!
