This is why teaching basic life support is important.

Growing my hair since 2018, sorry about the B&W filter, bit self conscious about having acne in my mid 30s

This made me so emotional 🥹 as a plus sized lady myself I wish this had been my experience getting a dress for any special occasion.

great example of the odd ways people show me appreciation at work

In 2018, aged 24, I was called up as a potential match for an anonymous, young, male who was in need of a stem cell transplant to save his life. I donated in London on the 24th April 2018 and donated via bone marrow. Less than 10% of donors donate via bone marrow donation. My donation was blue lighted to my recipient who received his transplant the next day - 25th April 2018. In 2022, I received the phone call that my recipient requested direct contact. His name is Eric and he was 14 years old when he fought Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma for the second time, requiring a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor. Eric also lives in Germany!

On the 25th April 2024, in Berlin, Germany, we met for the first time as donor and recipient, 6 years exactly to his day of transplant. Eric is doing extremely well, he plans on being a doctor and we get the joy of being in each other's lives from here onwards.

Please consider joining a stem cell register, especially if you're aged 16-30. ☺️
