A very full description, Alex. Hope that you kick the virus. See you shortly.
Just checked ... It is Imperial College (Hammersith campus) London that is dealing with this ....
So hang on, what are the requirements for someone to be able to go in and donate specifically for you Alex? If tissue match isnt a factor, what is?
The Anthony Nolan Trust have a list of general requirements for would-be bone marrow donors; www.anthonynolan.org.uk/index.php?location=3.1.1.1
And what, if you know, are the understood physical effects of becoming a bone marrow donor under these circumstances?
Word G... had my first exam today, 4 to go. Can't wait for home... Hope nintendogs is sweet, you should get mariokart DS, you can play it on 2 DS with 1 cartridge I think. Mariokart is pretty much the greatest game ever.
Later Bro

I'm happy to donate you some stem cells. Did have a sore throat a day or to ago, is that a problem?
Chris, if only it was that easy. Im assuming your being somewhat sincere, so, its a bone marrow donation, which has health risks associated. Look at the links above for what is and what isn't acceptable for donors.

Some more information on how the cells or marrow are harvested.
My husband used to donate platelets on a fairly regular basis, and he said that he usually fell asleep during the procedure, and that he experienced a bit of a rush...kind of like blood doping, I guess.
Alex, I live too far away (in the US) to help you, but I am going to register as a donor here.
I wish you the best of luck, and a speedy recovery.
My friends sister in law - (tenuous link)- died of Leukaemia and after watching what they went through trying to find donors I seriously looked at becoming a one myself back then but due to my potential health problem on the Anthony Nolan registrar deem me "Definitely unacceptable"
Or I'd donate today and tomorrow and the day after I really really would!!
