From MatchLindsey.org:
Lindsey is a 26-year-old New York City law student who was diagnosed with leukemia in the spring of 2005. She needs a bone marrow stem cell transplant, and is looking for a donor. Lindsey is Jewish, and since tissue type is inherited, her best chance of finding a donor lies with recruiting as many volunteers of Eastern European Jewish descent as possible. But because the Holocaust destroyed so many Jewish bloodlines, identifying matches is very difficult.
If you haven't already been tested for a bone marrow match, there are a few options in the NY area next week.
