On Thursday, January 20th, FLAME hosted a Bone Marrow Drive in order to find a bone marrow match. This was open to the public from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. It was hosted by Michigan Blood. If you were unable to make it yesterday, the good news is that you can still help! FLAME still has testing kits available that you can pick up the office in Warren.
I went through this process myself, and I can assure you that it really does only take 10 minutes. Imagine rubbing a q-tip in your mouth four times. These 10 minutes could help to save a life and make you a hero. If you would like to participate or have any questions…call FLAME at (888) 234-2340 or e-mail Frank Lang at flang@ffold.awcsite.info.
