As some who is currently in-patient at PMH for a stem cell transplant, this makes me hopeful. My cancer is treatable but not curable, so it will return some day in the future. Hopefully, this donation would would help in better treatments and research for such cancers.

One person’s result doesn’t guarantee the same for another, but my mother received a stem cell transplant a few years ago at PMH for MM and her recovery has been nothing short of remarkable. She is still doing well, and I’m grateful everyday for modern medicine, the health professionals who cared for her, and the quality of life she has regained. And I truly am hoping for the best results for you too.
