Bone Marrow Drive For Isabella Clendenny

Bone Marrow Drive
For Isabella Clendenny

at St. Matthews Episcopal Church
5873 North Dean Road
Orlando, FL 32817



Would you be willing to give a quick cheek swab to see if you could save a life?
That is all it takes to see if you are a match for someone in need of bone
marrow transplant. Isabella was recently diagnosed with a rare genetic
disorder known as Hurlers Disease and she needs a bone marrow transplant.
When a transplant is needed doctors turn to the national bone marrow
registry. Unfortunately, this list is very short, often making it hard to find a
match. Many people do not sign up because they fear that the procedure will
be painful but with new technology this is not the case. Please consider
donating. You really could save a life!!!!

For more information please send an email to bellabonemarrow@yahoo.com.

Testing Kits are being supplied by Kids Beating Cancer. Donations towards the cost
of testing are very much appreciated.
