poeticrican: grrrls-fighting-back: “My name is Michael Hunter. I was diagnosed with leukemia in June 2013 & was told on June 11, 2014 that I only have a few months left to live if I can’t find a donor. Please help me with my biological family or a donor match! I was born in Columbus, OH 3/1/1985 at Doctor’s North Hospital and given the name Christopher Brown. Please share” Michael is a friend, I’m asking that you all take the time to share this. He desperately needs a bone marrow donor and there is very limited number of African American donors. Without a donor Michael is going to die. Michael was adopted and does not know his birth family. We know he has a half brother but have no information about him. He does not specifically need an African American Donor but because of all of the things that factor into finding a match (blood type, dna tissue etc.) , someone of similar descent is more likely to be a closer match. If anyone knows anything about Michael’s birth family or if you would like to see if you are a match, please privately message me. I can put you in touch with him and his caregivers directly! We hope through spreading awareness we can either find his birth family whom he does not know or find a donor match. Michael lives in the Cincinnati, OH area. Please dont just like this or scroll past. Please share this! You could save his life! BOOST. Its so hard for Black people to find donors. Michael Hunter UpdateThis morning, Michael Hunter was called home. Please send prayers and good vibes to his family in this difficult time. An account has been set up at Fifth Third Bank called “Team Michael Hunter Live”, which you can donate to help raise money for final expenses.Thank you for all your continued love and support. -- source link
