BLOOD DRIVE & MARROW(骨髓)REGISTRATION
"These patients deserve a chance at a normal,happy future and they rely on the kindness of strangers to make that happen.
-Daisy,Isabelle's Mother
Isabelle is the daughter of Daisy and Saman Mirzaei.In January 2008 Isabelle was diagnosed(诊断)with a genetic blood disorder,beta thalassemia.Isabelle's body is unable to produce healthy red blood cells.As a result,Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions(输血)every 4-6 weeks since she was 11 months old.A lifetime of regular transfusions can lead to serious medical problems.Her on ly chance at a normal,healthy life is to have a marrow transplant.Isabelle is an only child,so doctors have started a search for an unrelated marrow donor through the Be The Match Registry.The Mirzaei family asks that you consider helping patients like Isabelle by registering to be a marrow donor and give the gift of life,the gift of blood.
