"Thank you for undergoing the procedure to donate your bone marrow and stem cells through a long needle going into your pelvic bone that may have included anesthesia, so you hopefully didn’t feel any pain. Thank you for enduring the week-long or more of recovery. Thank you for the time you committed going through this process with an estimated 24-30 hours over four to six weeks.
Thank you for your gift of life to a perfect stranger who happens to be our child. Your stem cells from your bone marrow gave our son an immune system that he wasn’t born with completely. By giving a piece of yourself — you gave us the world.
There are not enough words to say thank you.
With love,
A grateful family"
