aw, man. i would if i could but i'm in the midwest. :( i hope he finds a donor.

The drive is nationwide.

[deez nuts]

Thanks for the heads up.

It's a nationwide drive and a nationwide registry so geography isn't an issue. for those interested in registering.

And it's a Korean Acute Myeloid Leukemia patient in need of matching bone marrow, so the odds of a match is within the Asian community with the greatest chances of a match within the Korean community itself.

You can go to your local hospital too, they'll enter you into the NMDP.
