My name is Astrid (Ada). I was diagnosed with a particularly severe form of blood cancer – Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
I am Nigerian-German and urgently need an
African-European/ African-Caucasian stem cell donor
who can help me to continue being there for my children, my husband and my friends.
​
Given the advanced nature of the disease,
every day, every hour, every minute counts!
It is extremely difficult for people of mixed ethnic origin to find a suitable donor.
Less than 3% of people registered as donors worldwide
have a mixed ethnic background.
If one parent of yours comes from West Africa, ideally Nigeria from the ethnic group of
Ibo / Igbo and the other from Europe, you can help save my life with a stem cell donation.
Do these criteria apply to you?
Then please register with your local country’s stem cell registry.
I very much hope for your help! Your Astrid (Ada)
The thought of not seeing my little boys grow up
is unbearable to me.
