PLEASE READ: Urgent request for an industry colleague from NABS
Ad Club members, please view the ugent letter below...
I was recently diagnosed with a very rare cancer that affects
only 1 in 300,000 people. And I don’t have very many options
available to me. In fact, I only have one…I need to undergo a liver
transplant within the next 2-3 months.
Under the Canadian Medical Transplant guidelines, most cancer
patients may have to wait up to 2 years. Sadly, I would not be
able to sustain that long. However, if I can provide the surgeons
with a “live” donor, I can undergo the transplant sooner than
later. And this is what myself and my family live in hope of.
Essentially, a “live” donor is a willing candidate that would
donate a portion, or lobe, of their liver. Although this is a serious
procedure, the outcome for the donor is that they would typically
recover within 3-4 weeks and their liver will regenerate or
grow back to its normal size in as little as 6 weeks after the
operation. As a result, I would be given a second lease on life.
I am hoping that a healthy adult between the ages of 18-60 with
type O blood is going to volunteer for this life-saving surgery.
It is against the law for me to offer anyone money for this procedure.
So, I ask at the mercy of all, that there’s an angel out there with
a heart of gold.
