- Be a friend/check in on us.
Amri is recovering beautifully, and Michael is the same as he has always been. We are so, so thankful.

GoFundMe had a back end transition this fall. That doesn't mean anything now, but to the set of folks that donated around that time- I was unable to send Thank Yous from my app. The situation has been resolved, and if I missed saying it- please know we appreciate you!
- Share our GoFundMe. Just remember to include a sentence about how you know us. That part is really important and greatly appreciated.

- Sign up to be a donor at Be The Match https://bethematch.org/ Amri has already had her transplant, but you could save someone else's life. To register, you basically just spit in a tube and send it in. If you match someone, they'll call you up. For most donors, on the day of your donation, they give you meds to up your stem cell production and hook you up to a machine. The machine draws blood from one arm, filters the extra stem cells out, and puts the cleaned blood right back in your other arm. I think you even go home the same day. Easy Peasy!
-Donate blood or plasma. Amri needed both of these during her stay. Countless others could benefit from your donation.
