The email was a simple statement of what it would take to save someone&#8217;s life. Here&#8217;s some of the email. I don&#8217;t think I could say it any more clearly myself.

<p><a href="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/06/donatemarrow.gif"><img border="0" alt="donate-marrow" src="http://www.everyjoe.com/uncovertheinternet/files/2009/06/donatemarrow-thumb.gif" width="575" height="242" /></a> </p>
<p>The email was a simple statement of what it would take to save someone&#8217;s life. Here&#8217;s some of the email. I don&#8217;t think I could say it any more clearly myself.</p>
<p>Most people hesitate to become a donor because they think either&#8211; </p>
<ul>
<li>it&#8217;s painful (No pain involved&#8211;it&#8217;s a simple cheek swab.) </li>
<li>it&#8217;s complicated (It&#8217;s 30 seconds on the internet. We easily spend 30 minutes just here on Facebook.) </li>
</ul>
<p>Here is the SIMPLE process: </p>
<ol>
<li>Go to <a href="http://www.marrow.org">www.marrow.org</a> </li>
<li>Click on &quot;Join Registry&quot; </li>
<li>It will ask you to agree to terms, give your name, email address, create a password, and give your mailing address. </li>
<li>They will mail you a cheek swab kit. You collect the cells and mail it back in. </li>
</ol>
<p>Once they receive and test your sample. It AUTOMATICALLY goes into the system, and is checked to see if it is a match. If you have any questions at all, call 1-800- Marrow2. They are very kind and helpful there.</p>
<p>The registration process usually costs $50 for that initial testing, but is FREE now until June 22nd. There will never be any other cost for you. If you are a match for my sister, her insurance will cover it. </p>
<p>Please take a moment to do this for my sister&#8230;    <br />for her husband who is so in love with her&#8230;     <br />for her 3 small kids who need their mommy&#8230;     <br />for the rest of us as her family and friends who would like to have years yet with her.</p>
<p>What do you do with a request like that? I&#8217;ll tell you what you do, you go visit <a href="http://www.marrow.org">www.marrow.org</a> and follow the 4 steps mentioned above and you realize that your simple effort very well could save someone&#8217;s life.</p>
