Three words and ten minutes - that's all it takes to be a hero. That's all it takes to make a difference in someone's life. That and two vials of blood. I'm talking about becoming a bone marrow donor. Donating two vials of blood is less painful than donating a pint of blood and once you donate, you're on the registry until age 55. You can be a match for anyone in the world. More importantly, minority representation in the registry is incredibly low. The more people who join, the more chance there will be that a match will be found for someone who desperately needs the marrow. Click here for more information. Three words and ten minutes - that's all it takes. Be a donor.
