Tami's Discharge Day from SCCA has been Scheduled!

This is great news. It's been confirmed. Barring any complications Tami will be released from the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance Transplant hospital on October 8th to return home! YAY! She is doing well enough to go home!

Thanks to everyone for all of your prayers and good thoughts. We know they have helped Tami through her ordeal and I know you have all helped to lift the spirits of our entire family. I will keep you posted as I learn more about her move home.

Project Michelle Documentary

While Michelle underwent chemo several times and received a cord blood stem cell transplant, it failed several months later and her need for an adult marrow match became absolutely critical. Tragically a match was not found in time and Michelle passed away on July 25, 2009. If you are Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai or any combination of these ethnicities PLEASE join the Registry to find out if you are the one who can save a patient in need like Michelle. She was only 27 years old.

To date Project Michelle has now located matches for 4 other patients in need allowing them to receive a potentially life saving marrow transplant. By registering over 20,000 potential donors into the National Registry Project Michelle will continue to locate matches for other patients in need for decades to come.
