I would also recommend bethematch.org I am on this registry as well. It is a very simple sign up process and they mail you the cheek swab supplies that you then send back to be added to the registry.
Trying to find a pediatrician out this way (our current is out in South Jordan). Just called the UofU Health Center and they were a joke.... So they're off my list. I've heard good things about Gould over by Home Depot. Any others we should look into?
Thanks!!!

Thank you so much, Timothy! My son is good, though. In the clear. Now we just have to monitor the after effects, which is why I'm so particular about having a fantastic pediatrician, and we really do love Dr. Veronica. I was so sad about Ethan, too. He had the same cancer as my son, and it just kept coming back. They only found out a few weeks ago that they were out of options. The other two in my profile picture died pretty suddenly, too. All within 24 hours. Awful. A great way to help is to donate blood to ARUP, which is the only company that supplies Primary Children's, and also to join the bone marrow registry at bethematch.org. It's free, and puts you into a national registry for life. I'm rather sure all three kids in my profile picture got none marrow transplants. Thanks for expressing such empathy and concern! Becky, I'm sorry to hijack your thread!!
Good morning and God Bless You!
Does anyone know the process for becoming a bone marrow transplant donor. A loved one named Hawk Spearman is fixing to do battle again with this evil disease. He will need a bone marrow donor. The donor needs to step forward pretty quick and I don't know the process. Hawk lives in Ohio. Please educate me and pray for Hawk and his amazing family. Thank you.

http://www.bethematch.org/ nationwide program, super easy to get tested and I believe they allow you to get tested for a specific person. I joined years ago, they're a great organization!
