Stem Cell Transplant Saves A Life of Cancer Patient!

Are you or a loved one interested in receiving stem cell treatment? For free information, please fill out our treatment form or email me don@repairstemcells.org and just put TREATMENT in the subject box and the MEDICAL CONDITION in the message.
Yet another success story that says cancer (multiple myeloma) isn't necessarily a death sentence due to repair stem cell treatment.  In this case, the stem cells came to the rescue in the form of a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant from the cancer patient's sister:

The ties holding the Geprey family together remain strong -- now two of the nine siblings are truly blood relatives.

Luann Magolan, of Oregon Township, gave her sister Chris Gepfrey Dahlke, 14 million cells to save her life from a rare form of cancer. Multiple myeloma affects the plasma cells in the bone marrow and is destroying her bones.

"It was determined that she needed a stem cell transplant," Magolan said. "Blood stem cells are produced in your bone marrow. The cancer took over those stem cells and they broke apart. The marrow can't produce and you get weak bones."

As she heals, Chris and her husband Craig live in Ann Arbor to be near the hospital. With the cells of her sister inside her, Chris grows stronger each day. (YES!!!- DM)

This is the reason why I keep urging my readers (yes you!) to register as a bone marrow transplant donor.  You could save a life of someone you love or more likely someone you don't know.  Imagine the feeling of saving someone's life.  Go to www.bonemarrow.org and find out how you can register.
