Marrow Registry Drive Sunday for Goleta Woman
A labor of love will take place Sunday in Santa Barbara. And you are invited.
A big turn out is expected for a marrow-donor registry drive to help a local woman living with A-M-L leukemia.
This is Krista English’s second time battling the blood disease.
The Goleta mother of two underwent a bone marrow transplant four years ago from a close match. But a recent relapse put her friends and family in high gear in hopes of finding a perfect match.
“I’m at City of Hope. 200 patients. The more who register the more who can find that match.” Krista English said.
A simple swab of your inside cheek is all it takes.
The registry drive is this Sunday from 10:30 to 1:30 at Calvary Chapel at 1 North Calle Cesar Chavez, number 21, that’s down and around from Arts Alive.
