Someone else with leukemia

When I was diagnosed, everyone came to me and said I could come to them if I ever needed anything. Well, now I need something. I need you to share this information and spread the word of Mai Duong. 

Who is Mai Duong? She's a year older than me, and she also has acute leukemia, diagnosed at the same time as mine. Like me, also went into full remission. She just relapsed. She needs a stem cell transplant NOW. But seeing as she's Vietnamese, finding one is close to impossible as less than 1% of all donors are Vietnamese, and Vietnam (as in the country itself) doesn't even have a registry. But she needs stem cells! Please pass this info on and make sure all the Vietnamese get their swabs sent into to HEMA-Quebec (or wherever) so she can get a transplant.

If you want to help me out in any way, you'll pass on that info for me. PLEASE. Please & thank-you. <3 <3 <3
