My apologies in advance for what I am now posting. I have just been diagnosed with a devestating disease, MDS, and a bone marrow transplant may be my best option. My doctor is starting the process of searching registries, but he seemed to think there might indeed be a better chance of finding a match in people of the same haplogroup.
My mitochondrial DNA is haplogroup V. If you share this haplogroup with me - and the idea of being my savior appeals to you ! - you can go to a website called Be the Match and register with them. And donation technology is now like giving blood, not surgical or like a marrow biopsy... so don’t be scared!!
I’m sure this is a rather ‘nervy’ plea, and again, I mean no offense, and if I have offended, please forgive me!
Thank you.
