John

When you think of your wedding day, you don’t think of saying your vows in a sterile environment, in the hospital while undergoing chemotherapy. Well, that is exactly what John and Cynthia did.  John was diagnosed with leukemia in October 2018 and requires a stem cell transplant to help save his life.  John and Cynthia decided to profess their love to each other, in sickens and in health, in the hospital.  Now, Cynthia can focus on taking care of John, while AADP focuses on finding a life-saving stem cell donor for her new husband.  John loves to cook, bake and he just loves his puppies.  John’s search for a donor was tough, he is Cambodian and the number of Cambodian’s on the registry is very small.  Actually, there are only 276,667 Cambodian people here in the United States and Cambodia does not have a registry to search from. John was unable to find a compatible donor, anywhere in the world.  John had a Haploidentical transplant using his sister’s stem cells.  Register today by clicking on this link https://join.bethematch.org/aadp.
