The Sarah Murray Bone Marrow Appeal
Sarah Murray is a teacher at London’s Waverley School.
She was diagnosed with leukaemia in May 2004 and urgently needs a bone marrow donor to save her life.
Donor's must be one of the following:
Male or Female - Generally Healthy
AGED 18 - 40 (White British) or
AGED 18 - 43 (Black, Asian and
all other Ethnic Minorities)
To register as a potential donor will require an
application form to be completed and a very
small sample of blood to be taken for testing to
see if you are a match by a trained
phlebotomist (blood taker).

Editor's note:
The recent death of talented young Blacks like R & B crooner Lyden David Hall and DJ Swing from related illnesses, highlight the urgent need for people in the Black communities to come forward.
Sarah is not alone. There are dozens of Black patients waiting for donors. Please get tested and maybe you can save someone's life.
As an African Caribbean, the chances of finding a perfect donor can be as low as one in 100,000. For a white patient the odds would be around one in five.
