Support Laurie’s 3rd battle with leukemia
As many of you know, my mom, Laurie, has been battling leukemia for the 3rd time.
Things are a little different this time around, she will be traveling a lot more, she is responsible for her medical bills and travel, and her insurance has been absolutely awful with approvals.
As you can imagine, she has been putting out a significant amount of money during her fight, and I just wanted to start this page to try to help her through this obstacle while she worries about getting healthy.
She is traveling often for infusions and transfusions, and she will very likely be going out of state for clinical trials.
Any help is greatly appreciated. We would also like to try to get her out when and if she is cleared to do so by medical professionals. She has not had a vacation in over 10 years, and our Florida trip was cancelled by COVID.
There is also something else you can do to help. She is currently awaiting a possible bone marrow transplant, but she does not have any eligible donors, so I have been hosting a virtual Bone marrow drive. Signing up is quick and easy,and not only do you have the opportunity to help her, but the thousands of others awaiting apotential match!
The code to request a swab to be in the national bone marrow registry is:

if you have any questions about bone marrow donation, please feel free to look at my page, as I have posted a large amount of information.
thank you for taking the time to read!
