I was just selected for a further swab test (it came in the mail) & I immediately did it. I’d like to think I can help this baby.
They should have set up testing stations at the Israel Day Parade.

Try Ezer Mizion they have the largest Jewish bone marrow registry in the world ezermizion.org

If I registered with the gift of life foundation, does anyone know if they share databases?
To # 5 YES, they do share.
My wife and I ran a bone marrow drive two years ago – we were told then that all registries in the U.S. are cross referenced…if you are on one, in effect, you are on them all.
