CRY FOR HELP FROM A VIETNAMESE MOTHER TO SAVE THE LIFE OF HER LITTLE GIRL
It is devastating and frightening to know that a member of your family is
threatened with cancer. My daughter, Julia Lam (Lam Gia Binh), was
diagnosed with leukemia shortly before her six birthday in April 1996.
Most victims will live free of leukemia after receiving intensive
chemotherapy and radiation treatments while others will give in to this
disease. Leukemia is a form of blood cancer and it can happen to any
healthy individual.
Even with the intensive treatment and the greatest care at Children
Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), Julia's life is only stable day-by-day
with chemotherapy. Her illness is considered high risk and a Bone Marrow
Transplant is needed.
==========================================================================
Above is part of a letter from Julia's mom - Jennifer Lam, who is
in need of help from ASIAN/ORIENTAL all over the world for Unrelated
Bone Marrow Donation.
