In case you missed it, our beloved trainer, Luis, was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and has been an absolute warrior throughout this fist fight (F**K CANCER). He’s now up against a bone marrow transplant, and remains in search of a donor (F**K CANCER x2!).
SO...we’re hosting a Swab Party Hangover Brunch at MADabolic Elizabeth THIS SUNDAY where you can come hang, drink a mimosa, smash a bagel, dance to some sweet tunes, and swab to enter the NMDP Registry for those in need of a stem cell or bone marrow donor...including Luis! (DID WE MENTION F**K CANCER?)
IMPORTANT FYI’S:
- The process to test is painless, it’s a mouth swab and takes two seconds (NMDP will be on site to provide kits, support, and facilitate).
- To enter the donor registry, you must be within the age range of 18-35 years old. If you’re outside this age range but know people who are eligible and willing to swab, please bring them!
- If you’re ineligible to swab, we still invite you to come hang out, support and bring the energy (consider yourself a personality hire)!
- Donation is completely voluntary and FREE, but it’s important to join the NMDP Registry with the intent to donate if matched to a patient, even if it’s not Luis. Patients may have very few matching donors and in some cases you could be their only option. By joining the registry, you’re making a meaningful commitment to be there if you’re called—a decision that can truly save a life.
