Subject: [aaja-nyc] Save Nina

http://savenina.com/ An Asian woman in the Bay Area, Nina Polvanich Louie, has lymphoma, and she has less than 1 month to find a bone marrow donor. Lymphoma can be treated, but Nina has not found a match in the registry. You can help by getting typed with a free home typing kit, or by getting typed in person at a local drive in LASF or NYC, or going to a recruitment center across the US or Internationally, and by helping to spread the word. The process to find a match is simple – with a kit (at home or at a drive), swab your cheek and then send the swab back in. That’s it! With just a few minutes of your time, you can find out if you are eligible in saving not just Nina but anyone suffering from blood cancers or other related diseases. Thanks to the overwhelming support, all home kits will be expedited for Nina, but the fastest way to help is to get typed at a local drive. Thank you for helping to save Nina!
