A First Connection Patient

Through the Leukemia Lymphoma Society volunteer program I was connected with a young man, 31 years old, his name is John. He and his wife have two young children, his youngest is under 6 months old. He was admitted into a center of excellence for a stem cell transplant, his donor is a volunteer with a 10 out of 10 match.
I have not heard from my brave friend and I think about him everyday! I would like to send prayers and strength to John and his family that he continues to fight. Please God let him be OK, he just wants to get it over with and be home with his wife and kids.
