How You Can Help |
|
The most important thing you can do to help Robert is to pray that his bone marrow transplant scheduled for July 20, 2001 is successful and he can finally be cured of ALD. Pray that the doctors will discover a cure for ALD before Evan faces the same situation. And pray for all the ALD boys out there and their families. It would mean so very much to me if you would include my family in your daily prayers. Please also pray for the kind and generous man that is donating his bone marrow so that my child can be cured of ALD. His gift of life means more to my family than he will ever know and I will never be able to thank him enough. God Bless You Unknown Donor!!! For more information about becoming a registered bone marrow donor in the national donor program, please visit our ALD Resources page. If you are expecting a child and do not have any known genetic illnesses, please consider donating your umbilical cord blood to the Cord Blood Registry. Not only is it free, but you can potentially help cure another person with a life-threatening disease with something that usually ends up in a hospital incinerator. I've set up an email list for those of you that would like to pray with me and to stay informed about Robert's surgery and recovery. Click here to read or add to Robert and Evan's online guestbook. |
