You Could Be the Cure Abhirup Needs
Abhirup, a 27-year-old graduate from St. Thomas’ College of Engineering & Technology, Kolkata, is currently battling Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) — a serious blood disorder in which the bone marrow cannot produce healthy blood cells.
Doctors have advised that a blood stem cell transplant is his best chance for a cure. For this to happen, a matching stem cell donor must be found.
Finding a match can be difficult, but every new donor registration increases the chances of saving a life.
If you are between 18–50 years old and in good health, you can register as a potential donor. The process is simple and begins with a quick cheek swab test.
Your decision to register could help save Abhirup’s life — or someone else fighting a blood disorder.
